Triadë: Larva Lamp, Rëd Room + Linë (2025)
Presented at Nuit Blanche at PHI Centre in collaboration with POP Montréal
Montréal (Canada)

In this three-part performance, the artist delves into the metamorphosis of body and space through a trinitarian composition that highlights movement, matter, and architecture. LaRva Lamp is a 5-hour durational piece where the artist merges with a shifting organic mass, embodying an uninterrupted flow. Matter pulses independently, creating a hypnotic slowness that challenges the body’s endurance. Rëd Room unfolds in a carmine-lit space, where a restless, streaked figure spirals in a hypnotic rhythm, driven by the invisible forces of wind and repetition. In Linë, the body becomes architecture as its movements, amplified by a costume, stretch and transform the space, merging flesh and form in a dynamic interplay of geometry and dance.

Dans cette performance en trois parties, l’artiste explore la métamorphose du corps et de l’espace à travers une composition trinitaire mettant en lumière le mouvement, la matière et l’architecture. LaRva Lamp est une pièce de 5 heures où l’artiste fusionne avec une masse organique en perpétuelle mutation, incarnant un flux ininterrompu. La matière palpite de manière autonome, instaurant une lenteur hypnotique qui met à l’épreuve l’endurance du corps. Rëd Room se déploie dans un espace baigné de lumière carmin, où une figure agitée et striée tourbillonne dans un rythme hypnotique, portée par des forces invisibles de vent et de répétition. Dans Linë, le corps devient architecture, ses mouvements — amplifiés par un costume — étirent et transforment l’espace, fusionnant chair et forme dans un jeu dynamique entre géométrie et danse.
