Jules Petru Fricker

Residency guest 24/25

Jules Petru Fricker (LEGZ) is an interdisciplinary Zurich-based artist with an interest in choreography and moving image. Deeply rooted in the practices of dance rituals, Fricker finds ways to evoke otherworldly, dreamlike islands of longing. Jules' works use utopian imagination and magical fabulations as a form of political resistance to criticise normative notions of desire, objectification and identification. Their solo debut (‘Between-a queer Science-Fiction Rite’, 2022, 60 min) premiered at Zentralwäscherei Zürich (ZW) and was performed to thrilled reviews at the Performing Arts Festival and Dock 11 Berlin, among others.
