Purpose of residency: research.
The Une Odyssée project brings together three artists in a cross-disciplinary investigation of musical spaces (composition), physical spaces (musician's body, stage space, audience presence) and visual spaces (video creation and set design).
The piece Le silence des sirènes, composed by Vincent-Raphaël Carinola, is their meeting point, and the starting point for a live performance project. Its poetic, spatial and visual dimensions open up a strong cross-disciplinary field. The multi-channel broadcast immerses the audience, as does the musician's solo position, face-to-face with her instrument, which carries the story.
The scenography and visual design work will be built in resonance with the musical piece, with the aim of creating an immersive work with multiple artistic dimensions. The heart of the work lies in a search for translation between plastic-scenic and musical forms, notably in the following dimensions: gesture, textures, spatialization, poetic sound and visual semantics.

Faustine Reibaud-Nicoli
Director
Born in 1993, Faustine Reibaud-Nicoli is a visual artist and film-maker who graduated from the Haute École des Arts du Rhin in Strasbourg. She lives and works in Marseille. Her work develops across video, sound and writing. Faustine is interested in notions of belonging, intimate mythology, the resonance of beings in relation to a land, and what intimately defines a form of home. Questions of migration, landscape and language are central to her work. Always accompanied by music, Faustine also develops her singing practice in various projects, constantly seeking the link between oral narratives, relationship to the land, vocal and plastic experimentation. Faustine Reibaud-Nicoli has benefited from creation and mediation residencies at Centre d'Art de Châteauvert, LA MARELLE Marseille and FRAC PACA, NEKATOENEA Hendaye, and her films have been shown in the USA, Luxembourg and France.
