Stéfane Perraud was born in 1975, he lives and works in Paris. He graduated from Decorative Arts school in Paris, and obtained a post diploma in an interactive research workshop in 2001. He obtained a residency at the College de France within the framework of Open Lab in 2011 and a Pictanovo development grant in 2013 for an art/science project linked to nuclear power.

His field of research, linked to the energy of matter and light, regularly prompts him to collaborate with writers and scientists. His work opens up a dialogue which is sometimes fictitious, with the imperceptible and the infrathin, and which aims to connect the various activities of the human soul with the intimacy of matter. His favorite tools and formats are hybridizations that he obtains and deconstructs using new media and advanced science and techniques.

Since 2003, he has collaborated with several artists in the world of theater, dance and performance (Eli Commins, Trajal Harell, Ali Moini…). He regularly exhibits his work in France and abroad (Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Collège des Bernardins, Musée de la Chasse in Paris, Maison Particulière in Brussels, Manoa Art Center in Hawaii, White Room in Quebec…). He is currently preparing an exhibition on the nuclear landscape which will take place at the Lieu Unique in Nantes in 2021, and another in Malta in 2020, on the physical properties of light, as part of the European Vertigo grant.
