creation

A clearing is a place apart, an open or enclosed place depending on the point of view, where ecosystems develop that cannot live elsewhere. 

Clairière is an invitation to discover a renewed, hybrid nature. Proxima Centauri will transport musicians and spectators into a new clearing, where electronics and organics blend to give shape to new sounds. 

As every clearing is condemned to revert to forest from the moment of its creation, this sound clearing is ephemeral, carried by the struggle of the musicians to make it exist in the face of silence or noise. 

The clearing is a symbol of the duality between full and empty. The opportunity to question the dialogue between voice and electronics, two mediums that evoke a mixture between the real and the unreal. A phantasmagorical journey through our dreams, our History, our legends and our universe.
