Wendt and Dufaux’s work emerges at the intersection of their individual practices—dance, sound and performance for Sarah Wendt, and sculpture and media art for Pascal Dufaux. Since beginning their collaboration in 2017, they have approached their shared practice as a continuum of experiments, where themes evolve through mutual influence and exchange.
Their process is fluid: for example, drawings become prototypes for sculptures, which are integrated into performances, then captured and transformed through video and sound. This interdependence creates a body of work where one medium exists within another, forming dynamic, multisensory environments.
Together, they develop vibrant, tactile installations that invite audiences into their aesthetic experience through multiple sensory pathways—sound, movement, image, and touch—offering layered points of entry into their evolving investigations.
Current explorations include working with honey to explore viscosity and time, and form-finding using natural forces and self forming phenomena like soap bubbles.
