Espaces bruts. Re-inhabitation

A performance installation for six connected spaces, built on recycling and re-inhabitation. Visitors move through six rooms, each presenting a different scenario with its own acoustic and visual environment, all of them unfolding at the same time. The figures are mannequins and the projected images are still: in the whole device, the only living body is the visitor's. The sound material is made of recycled sources, unfinished recordings, discarded fragments, digital artefacts. Conceived for basements, industrial sites and abandoned buildings.

The six spaces

On entering, each visitor receives a personal badge: on the front, their number and their entry and exit times; on the back, a QR code to the project's digital archive. The badge leaves with them. It is neither a ticket nor a souvenir, but a part of the work that goes on existing outside it.

A project carried by STOPERA! for the 26/27 season, looking for venues and production partners.
