biography

A multi-media and trans-disciplinary artist, Vimala Pons has a background in competitive sport, art history, cinema and music.
Known for her performative shows as well as her fine career as a film actress, all her work as an artist is based on emotional macro-introspection and the manifestation of imbalance in all its forms. She lives and works in Paris.

Since 2013, Vimala Pons has been evolving in young independent cinema and auteur cinema, acting for New Wave directors as well as for a new generation, such a A.Peretjatko, B.Mandico, S.Betbeder, T.Salvador, C.Honoré, B.Jacquot, J.Rivete, A.Resnais, P.Garrel, B.Podalydes, P.Verhoeven, B.Kasmi, S.Demoustier, S.Mitré, L.Borleteau… among many others.

At the end of 2022, she acted in “ Vincent doit mourir”, the film of Stephan Castang released in 2023. She will also be seen in Baya Kasmi’s next film “Mikado”, Victor Rodenbach first film “Le Beau Rôle”, and in Alejandro Jodorowsky’s last film “Le Voyage Essentiel”.

Since 2010, Vimala Pons and Tsirihaka Harrivel have written and imagined performative shows.

After De Nos jours (Notes on the Circus) with Ivan Mosjoukine, both of them created GRANDE in 2017, a contemporary circus show that toured for 3 years, until March 2019.

They recorded the soundtrack of this show, Victoire Chose, released on vinyl and digital, with Teenage Menopause and Murailles Music labels.

In November 2020, Vimala Pons carried out Mémoires de l’Homme Fente, a 52mn audio film, a kind of “short-length film without images” with the independent label Transcachette Tapes.

In January 2022, she created her first solo show, Le Périmètre de Denver.

At the same time, she wrote a sound fiction, Eusapia Klane, an EP (vinyl and digital), released with WARRIORECORDS and Kythibong.

Eusapia Klane is an audio book, its instrumental part is the music of the show le Périmètre de Denver.

In February 2023, the first clip directed by Vimala Pons, Feux Follets, for the musician Flavien Berger, has just been released with the label Pan European Recording.

Vimala Pons performed Le Périmètre de Denver at the Centre Pompidou in April 2023, and will present her first solo show at galerie anne barrault in April 2024.
