3 artists with differents worlds present 3 visions on the facade of La Voix du Nord: Marc Caro, César award-winning director, offers a first hypnotic mapping in black and white; Albane Chaumet invites to reverie in a colorful and dreamlike creation; while Nikolett Fábián set up a contemplative work in the form of successive paintings.
Video mapping created by Marc Caro (France), Albane Chaumet (France) and Nikolett Fábián (Hongrie) as part of a creation residency.
► The aesthetics of decay
The work aims to engage the viewer in a process of visual metamorphosis. The evocative images are intended to create a meditative state in which the viewer is initiated into a mystical cycle of disappearance and continuous re-creation.
Direction: Nikolett Fábián
Animation: Nikolett Fábián, Kristóf Zénó Mira
Original music: Géraldine Kwik
► Hypnovox du Nord
Imagined as a new exploration of the magic lantern and the phantasmagoric projections of the past, this audiovisual hypnosis session in black and white, created by Marc Caro, offers a real experience for your retina and your eardrums. Illusions, subliminal effects, stroboscopic lights and infra-basses make the audience enter a wonderful show halfway between an arcade machine and a fairground stall.
Direction, graphic design and animation: Marc Caro
Sound design: Marc Caro (MonoB) & Gaël Loison (NoroE)
► Sifflonies
Spring is awakening, giant trees are growing on the facade of La Voix du Nord and transform it into a multicolour grove. As a cacophony of birdsongs echos in the leaves, the canopy becomes the scene of a sound joust…
Direction: Albane Chaumet
Music and sound design: Noé Faure
