Posted on | by Caroline Bernard

Asκlipιοn : Spotlight festival

Last October, Asκlipιοn took part in the artistic program of Bucharest’s emblematic Spotlight festival, an international event at the intersection of art, design and technology.

Asκlipιοn is a plant-based audiovisual installation that translates plant frequencies into sound and light. The work invites us to rediscover the plants of our countryside and their benefits for body and mind through a soothing, almost therapeutic experience in the heart of the hustle and bustle of the city.

Biologist: Emeline Mourocq 
Production & distribution: Scenitz

Order 2OO – Mons Light Festival

Posted on | by Caroline Bernard

Order 2OO – Mons Light Festival

Order 2OO, Emilien Guesnard’s audiovisual installation, was at Mons en Lumières last January, Wallonia’s first Festival of Lights.

200 nautical lamps are aligned at regular intervals in perfect symmetry on either side of a minimalist structure. This open structure offers the public a fascinating plunge into the heart of the installation. Musical notes associated with each lamp generate a strange score of light and sound. Set to a musical composition by Cédric Béron, the perspective effect of this work suggests a hypnotic depth, wherever you look from. Intersecting lines and points of light, blurred by mist, create chaos in this enclosed space. Order2OO evokes the duality of order and disorder, almost organically intertwined.
