<span style="color: black;">Seas, oceans and waves remain largely
unknown.</span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: black;">For many years now, the collaboration
between Javiera Tejerina-Risso and Patrice Le Gal has lead them
to explore the dynamics and the forms of waves. They will
present their crossed approach to the design and elaboration of
artworks which find their inspiration both in the artistic and
scientific realms. They will show that their creative processes
are exactly at the point of convergence of their respective
requirements and demands.</span><br>

the sound of the word in itself demonstrates the terror of
humans when facing the liquid fury of the ocean. This fear <i

of Edgar Poe's short story <i style="mso-bidi-font-style:

survive only by nature close observation, has become the
starting point for an artistic as well as scientific
investigation, this time about a fear <i

<br>
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style:normal">A tale as a tool</i><span

artistic project about contemporary environnemental issues
taking Edgar Poe's short story as a tool to collect stories and
testimonies in various field researches in Brazil, the Great
Lakes (USA-Canada) up to Norvegian arctic where the story is
located. Crossing different continents, this long term survey
has accumulated over time a very diverse collection of stories
which were turned into events in museums, art centres, and
theatres.</span><br>
