Stasis, an erotic outcrop of the end of the world
This residency of the second part of the Stase project hosted by Transcultures at the Transonic Lab is based on a device-installation combining sound poetry and video.
Always in search of an original language in tune with the aesthetic issues of its time, Animo Plex, the multidisciplinary company of which Fabien Maheu is co-founder, summons concerns centered around the human, in the current anxiety-provoking context, in grip directly with the environmental, social and political concerns that feed the news. Faced with the imminence of a catastrophe with elusive contours, what latitude does the individual have left?
The show explores two possible paths, both centered around rewriting.
Rewriting the future, centered on action, with the search for viable solutions within the framework of a survivalist organization.
Rewriting of the past also, in an introspective movement, an attempt to pacify with the state of things, a sometimes clumsy philosophical approach but which perhaps allows in the long term to heal the soul. But Stase is above all a funny experience, full of energy and colorful, an anthology of sensations to take home with a smile.
