Anima unfolds across three giant screens showing landscapes in perpetual mutation. Guided by the haunting music of Chloé Thévenin, spectators observe the changing scenery, from the luxuriance of date palms to the emergence of a lunar desert, a striking metaphor for climate upheaval.
Drawing on research in palaeoclimatology and studies of our perceptions in closed environments, the two artists question our sensations and our need for spatial and temporal reference points.
During this visual journey, performer Mathilde Van Volsem, choreographed by Chloé Moglia, defies gravity by suspending herself in the void, as she embodies the fragility of our presence in this changing world. Her performance, somewhere between grace and tension, confronts us with our own vulnerability in the face of the forces of nature.
