This work offers the chance to experience a symbolic metamorphosis around the theme of love and separation. Its narrative is rooted in an intimate story, opening up to greater, to share a journey of sensations, emotions, shapes, colours, sounds and words that will awaken, deglaze and strengthen our love.

Staying true to our minimalist, uncluttered aesthetics, for En amour we will also be using colour as a dramaturgical tool, creating a combination of coloured light  and coloured video-projected images.

The path of the sun and luminous meteors produced by the refraction and reflection of light are our main source of inspiration to create this score of colours: night, dawn, aurora, sunrise, zenith, sunset, blue hour, twilight...
The infinite nuances of sunlight, and its imaginary nature, are one of the layers that make up the overall dramaturgical framework and help to convey the cyclical, symbolic and ritual dimension of the experience.

The image and the music are subtly intertwined into a narrated visual symphony lasting approx 40 minutes, allowing the music to be seen and the images to be heard. Finely tuned into the musical energy, projected images are created by blending the motion of computer-generated particles with edited realistic video captures. The musician Laurent Bardainne will compose an original sound experience, mixing sensitive pop and electronic music with the voice of singer November Ultra, in a delicate interweaving with the images.

The audience in movement is immersed in the image and spatialised music. In a large room, particles are projected onto part of the floor and several transparent gauze screens extend the image vertically.

A static score (identical at each performance) is combined with a dynamic score (unique to each performance) which involves the audience: the images are altered by the presence and movements of the public by means of a network of infrared cameras and fine signal analysis, offering many ways for audience and score to interact.

The audience’s body is an essential component of the experience. Strolling around barefoot in this sensitive and responsive environment, the public is invited to experiment with different postures that will all coexist without hierarchy in this space and give its meaning.
