Maïté Maeum Jeannolin is a Franco-Korean artist based in Brussels. Trained notably at P.A.R.T.S (Performing Arts Research and Training Studios) as a dancer, she develops a practice at the intersection of performance, film, sound installation, writing and curation.

Her work unfolds both in collaborative contexts - as a performer, artistic collaborator, co-creator or outside eye - and as an initiator of projects, for performances, installations and films. She is interested in the ways knowledge is constructed, transmitted and transformed from one field to another. Her projects emerge from the issues they traverse, rather than from a specific discipline.

She is a close artistic collaborator of Radouan Mriziga, and also works with Benjamin Vandewalle, Yasmine Hugonnet, Géraldine Chollet, Louise Vanneste, Selma and Sofiane Ouissi. Her collaborations also extend to visual artists and video makers such as Charley Case, Fabrice Samyn, Charlotte Marchal, Chloé De Bon, Trân Tran.

In 2015, she co-creates with Charlotte Marchal and Justine François the curatorial collective Coupé Décalé, bringing together performance, cinema and academic research (social sciences, philosophy, art history, neurosciences). Through the programming of works, they invite artists, theorists and audiences to exchange around themes developed over several cycles.

This work of creating connections between practices and forms of knowledge is part of a broader reflection on the body, narrative and images, and on the links between intimate histories and collective histories.

She is currently extending this research in her first feature-length documentary film, which questions the transgenerational dimensions of international Korean adoption. In parallel, she co-founds DoKADstories, a project and an Instagram platform dedicated to sharing testimonies of DoKAD (Descendants of Korean Adoptees) and engages in community-based work through collective projects, workshops, encounters, publications and public interventions.
