↘︎ Peut-être
[Creative direction + Film photography + Super 8 videoclip]In: 2024—2025
With: ROZA and Romain Vennekens
—Description: Between crises, wars and ubiquitous statements by public figures who, on a daily basis, confuse controversy with politics, human beings are lost in a labyrinth of contradictions, neuroses and anxiety-provoking information. Faced with this ambient chaos, ROZA now takes us on an intimate, hard-hitting journey, putting words to her emotions, at the junction of poetry, song and “spoken word”.
Creative direction, photography and Super 8-style direction of the video for “Peut-être”, the new track from singer ROZA's second EP.

Il y a cette curiosité enfantine sur le destin
Innée ou contée
Des petites graines qui ont été semées
Là, juste en-dessous de ma poitrine
Bien profondément sous la chair
C’est seulement ici qu’elles se sentent en sécurité
Avec assez de place pour doucement s’épanouir
J’arrose toutes les graines qu’on a déposées
Avec une application déterminée
Alors que la nuit se confond avec l’aube
Lorsque le temps ne va nulle part
Il me suffit de fermer les yeux et de voir
Quelque chose qui palpite d’essence et de parfum
Traversant mon corps à chaque respiration
Cela me fait respirer
Des graines, en fleurs

—Description: Laryssa Kim's second album, Contezza, traces a path from mental imprisonment to liberation: from blind, fearful love to vast, unconditional love for life, for ourselves and for others.
A journey that leads us to become aware of who we really are. Laryssa Kim's fascination with the world of dreams gives rise to a surreal musical universe and a performance in which body, voice, images, lights and scents blend into an indissociable whole. A ritual, a dreamlike trance that stimulates all our senses and challenges our perceptions.

—Description: Où mon amour sera ḥoub
« Nous, vous nous aimez bien, surtout quand nous sommes libérées, Baklawas sucrés au miel qui fondent sous la langue, les fesses rebondies, la peau presque blanche.
Aux Zahia, Nabilla, Léana,
Vos femmes de Frankenstein, moquées de part en part, puis portées en étendard,
Prises dans un étau de trahison, avec le rêve secret de revenir à la maison.
Votre assimilation, nos aliénations. »
—
A tale undulating in successive waves, sometimes calm, sometimes stormy, Où mon amour sera ḥoub expresses the outside and the intimate, through the multiple forms taken by the body and language.
For her second book, Zaïneb Ḥamdi plays with rhythms and images to enumerate otherness, the Other, the Barbarian, those we find hard to include. The filigree of paternal filiation and masculinity are added to the mix, with their attendant questions: how do we look at each other, woman, man, daughter, father? Faced with all the roles that are imposed on them and from which they would like to escape.

At: Insel Hombroich Museum + Bodies in Space + URsquare
—Description:
Performance “Tell me about”
A site specific dance performance conceived for Erwin Heerich’s walk-in sculpture the Labyrinth of Insel Hombroich Museum. A balance between abstraction and imagination, geometric forms, perception and sensuality.
See on:silviamarazzi.com
Site:Insel Hombroich Museum
Performance “At the end of the night time as fallen asleep”
Ode to a body. I was born the day that I began to move. My hands learned me to draw infinite landscapes and feet leaded me through the lines. Misura del mondo. The space in between collarbones. Jaws. My elbow mesure of the distance in between your ear and your shoulder. Bones under the skin. Blooded feet. Each fall deeper deeper into life. Strong legs roots. Discovering. The conjunction of spine and pelvis. All the way up to the atlas. My skin - plasma e catarsi. Eight counts the time of existence.

Performance “To the unknonwn”
The sun starts a fire. Sun starts a fire across the sky. Eyelid skin coastline. Take on a copper shine. I wanna stretch myself out. Stretch out on heads and wavy spines. A sea of hazy facial lines. That take on a copper shine - Fleshless hand by ML Buch

—Description: Insula
The word isolation comes from the latin insula, which means island.
When you think about it again, there are those moments that always resurface a bit. Moments when one is alone and faced with oneself. Isolated on an island where everything seems possible. In a space where the usual rules of temporality no longer apply. One can dream, get carried away, imagine another life while talking to oneself in the third person, travel very far... without having moved at all. If we let ourselves go, then an unlimitless field of possibilities opens up to us. We can then choose to surrender to it very gently. To let oneself be carried by the elements. And then sometimes, often too suddenly, everything collapses without warning. Uncertainty is everywhere. Leaving no opportunity to hold on to something tangible. The trick is to let go. That's how you sink. Under the weight, in the dark, with a taste of salt water giving way to inertia. Might as well give up. Somewhere isolated on an island where everything seems possible.

—Description: ‘What do we say we’re interested in? What are we actually interested in? In the intimacy of our smartphone or computer, we secretly tell Google what we’d like to know about. By fetching most looked up words from Google search and Google news in real time, and by bringing them to the public space through visual and sonic signals, visual artist Romain Tardy proposes to the visitors an involuntary self-portrait of our contemporary networked society.
The Great Indecision Council works exclusively with data from the country in which it holds the session, which is mixed with visual content and animations.’
