As part of the exhibition La postérité du soleil, co-commissioned with the Collection Lambert.
The wind is invisible, but it exists through its writing: it contributes to the morphology of landforms, shapes plants, oxygenates oceans, pushes waves and enables the reproduction of life. It is the intangible fruit of the solar winds born of the Earth's rotational dance before its star.
With Aural, Julie Rousse proposes a 360-degree journey along the Rose des Vents, using her vast phonographic library gleaned from around the world: a multiphonic installation bathed in sonorities that defy the boundaries of consciousness and space.
The Collection Yvon Lambert in Avignon and the GMEM - Centre national de création musicale in Marseille are giving sound artist Julie Rousse carte blanche to inhabit the Cour Montfaucon with a sound installation on the theme of wind. This original work will be created in-situ at the end of 2024 and will be exhibited for the duration of the exhibition La Postérité du Soleil, on show from January to April 2025.

A passionate phonographer, Julie Rousse is always on the lookout for new sounds from the field, which she records with traditional or experimental sound capture systems, in selected and particular urban, natural or industrial contexts around the world.
