On the program for this Nuit Blanche 2025 at the Agora media library:
- ULYSSE MASSEY, MIRTRU ESCALONA-MIJARES, MARLENE CONTINENTE / The Plant Organ
Saturday, June 07, 2025 from 6:00 p.m. to 11:00 p.m.The installation takes the form of three modules made up of plants, ceramic pots, tapestries and a system of sensors, cables and loudspeakers that enable the performer to interact with the organ. When humans come into contact with the plants that make up the organ, sound (voice, electronic music, noise, etc.) emerges, creating a certain musicality.
Ulysse Massey, who graduated from Arts Décoratifs in 2023, focuses his work on site-specific installations. Sculptures, tapestries, photos and videos enable him to address themes such as habitat, the occupation of space and passage.
Artists : Ulysse Massey, Mirtru Escalona-Mijares, Marlène Continente
With Grand Paris Sud and DRAC Ile de France
