Outside – Lyon Festival of Lights

We’re delighted to announce our new collaboration with visual artist Nawelle Aïnèche and her powerful Outside project, which joins the works we’ve been distributing.

Outside is a monumental installation woven from video cassette tapes, like a cumulus cloud whose destination is unknown. On this shimmering installation, artist Pia Vidal projects a metaphorical and poetic mapping of the reminiscence of memories. The reflective work questions the power of the dark, hidden memories, and consequently, the light that generates them.

➤ December 5 to 8, 7pm – 11pm + concert evenings throughout December
➤ Lyon Auditorium

Outside is also a dance performance, featuring two woven sculptures inspired by moires, ancient divinities that can foretell the future. The dance movements are paradoxical, constrained by the material and the sculptural costume. How can we find a space of freedom despite the physical and psychic constraints?

To be premiered at SUBS in Lyon on the weekend of May 2 – 3 – 4, 2025
