CARCASSE
CASTEL BLAST [ OLIVIA SOFIA / LÉO LOISEL / XAVIER MARY / GUILLAUME RÉMUS ]
40 MINUTES
In this experience that lies somewhere between a museum visit and a theatrical performance, you are invited to wander around an accumulation of ash-gray micro-particles. Amidst this organic matter in a state of decomposition, five fragile bodies are learning once again how to live. The slowness of the performers’ gestures incites contemplation. A live video feed manipulates and deforms our perception of the events. You are drawn into a state of post-traumatic shock. Time is suspended. Once the dust has settled, how can we all unite to survive an episode of immesurable violence?

40 MINUTES
Take a deep breath as you enter the smoke-filled room. The walls have disappeared, but you still feel the presence of your sentient body as the floor vibrates under your feet from the booming score. Free to move at will, lie down, or be still, you have ample time to navigate this mysterious landscape and position yourself alongside the other visitors. There is a dramaturgy of shadows, appearance and disappearance, and occasional explosions of blinding, colourful lights that punctuate an otherwise contemplative environment. It is hope, trepidation, the waiting, and the perception of faces that lie at the core of the experience. This is art as refuge, as a radical place for togetherness.
