improvised sound and visual
duo performance
Patricia Dallio et Mathieu Sanchez
Eau Forte is a kind of raw and archaic cinema, cinema from the origins, from the caves, from before cinema existed, where ecstatic pictures emerge from the darkness, then burn in the light filled with

sound interstices, and where the subject is life, death, duality and desire…
The fragile gesture strives to inhabit the empty space, the vibration of matter brings crepuscular landscapes back to life, while the erratic sound and light caresses and reveals a reality that has run out of breath, an eroded world where only the imagination can reactivate possibilities.

 

Patricia Dallio et Mathieu Sanchez are puppeteers and conjurers. The threads of the composer in her harness propel her music through the air, wrapping the spectators in a cloud of unheard of sounds, while the artist's magic lantern projects a Lilliputian world onto the screen, and we enter into its substance like explorers of the atom. Eau Forte is like an adventure with Stan Lee's The Avengers drawn by Hetzel, the artist who did the engravings for Jules Verne's books, but where Hollywood kitsch is replaced by a dizzying immersion in our own century.
Jean-Jacques Birgé, compositeur

A slow journey in sound and vision into a fantastic imaginary world in perpetual movement, a perceptible organic world that is always at the limits of intelligibility, reawakening individual and collective memories, with extravagant forms taking us into the depths of the unconscious. 
Antoine Schmitt, plasticien programmeur
