Welcome to the freakistch world of Nympho-Ménage!
Where housework is more than just work.
And obsession-compulsion, an everyday celebration!

Under the name Cochon de Cauchemar [they/them] or the alter-ego Nympho-Ménage, I'm a freakitsch sex-disruptive artist based in Berlin, creating costumes, props, sets, designs and narratives for experimental visual projects and performances.

As a personal strategy to exorcise deep anxieties towards the human body, my work focuses on the domestic sphere where I can indulge their passionate alienation/alienated passion for housework… and reflect on the historical correlation of female* identity and socialization with control, order, hygiene or even beauty and eroticism.
Long fascinated by tropes such as neurotic housewives, shrews and tyrannical mothers (-with a number of inspiring figures in my own family history!), Nympho-Ménage shamelessly claims their title of Domestic Dominator!
With a touch of sarcasm and absurdity.

Graduated in Fashion and Textile Design in France, I deviated from the boring route and rather make my odd-kitsch-smut stuff to shake up people’s conceptions of what art dealing with the body and sexuality can be... through the twisted sensitivity of an obsessive-compulsive freak somewhere on the asexual spectrum.
