Faurot studied mathe­matics and dance at Columbia University in New York City and moved to Berlin in 2007 where he worked extensively for two years at the Karmanoia-Gaya Theater in Neukölln di­recting experimental and site-specific theater. In 2010, Faurot traveled to Buenos Aires for a year-long residency at the Querida Elena Teatro. In Buenos Aires, Faurot choreographed and directed kpfmaschine, his first work in dance-theater based on Oscar Wilde's one-act play, Salome. Upon returning to Berlin in 2011, Faurot formed his company Pasullero Dance Theater and began a two-year cycle entitled „Studies for Prophet Machine that ex­plores the image of John the Baptist and the aesthetics precipitated by kfpmaschine. „I shall soon be quite dead at last in spite of all marks both a synthesis of these studies and a transition towards a new cycle of work dealing with human behavior and the forces that shape our daily actions.
