Au-delà des nuages

For this participatory project with the residents of Guissény (North Finistère) during the À Domicile festival, Vânia Vaneau invited a group of women of all ages to work on the tools of the creation of her solo Nebula (2021).

Au-delà des nuages is a collective ritual to revive the body's relationship with nature and its imaginary world. By activating elemental materials such as sand, water and fire through ancient gestures to invent new beings: mixtures of human, animal, vegetable, divinity and demon.

Using physical practices, song and the body's connection with natural and other materials, they created together a post-apocalyptic, animistic and healing ritual, set in the landscapes of Guissény.
