Clémence Hallé is a doctoral student at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris, in the Sciences, Arts, Creation, Research laboratory. Her thesis is on the aesthetic history of the Anthropocene. Supervised by the art historian Nadeije Laneyrie-Dagen and the environmental historian Gregory Quenet, she tells the story of the geological hypothesis’ emergence into the worlds of the humanities and the arts through the curatorial politics of the Haus der Kulturen der Welt’s Anthropocene Project, which is the first pluridisciplinary research platform on the subject. Through her thesis, she is pursuing the research into ecological representation she has started under the supervision of Bruno Latour, first in political philosophy, then by taking his programme of experimentation in arts and politics as her field of study. Within this context, she notably wrote a report on an advance simulation of COP21 at the Théâtre Nanterre-Amandiers, Paris Climat 2015: Make it Work, in the form of a theater play with SPEAP illustrator Anne-Sophie Milon. The research-creation method that Clemence experimented with Anne-Sophie for this play inspired the arts and sciences projects they have been developing since, such as the Vertigo of the Anthropocene (2019), a speculative map indexing the 110 names given to the geological hypothesis in every disciplines, or the solo Matters performed by the actor Duncan Evennou, which assembles and transforms the inaugural speeches of the Anthropocene Working Group on the stage of the Haus der Kulturen der Welt’s auditorium in 2014.
