In 2009, she co-signed with Sara Manente and Michiel Reynaerts the video Some Performances and the in-situ project Grand Tourists.

In 2018, she created her first piece, the solo Vacances vacance, then L’art de conserver la santé in 2020, and its garden adaptation La Ballade des Simples.

In 2020 and 2021, Ondine Cloez was an artist in residence at Laboratoires d’Aubervilliers. Drawing from the 13th-century work, L’art de conserver la santé, she developed a branching series of proposals: a choreographic piece, walks and visits, and conferences extending her reflection on health and the Middle Ages.

In 2024, she created with Kotomi Nishiwaki the duo The first word of the first poem of the first collection is basket.

In 2025, she will begin research on “rotten summer” as part of the Living Artistic Laboratories in Walloon Brabant, which will lead to a publication in the “éclats” collection by Contredanse.

She is also initiating a collaboration with choreographer Saghar Hosseinpour for a future duo.
