The research-creation project “ Rhythm(s) of spaces” was born from a meeting between Vivianna Chiotini and Rémi Sagot-Duvauroux within the framework of the SACRe doctoral program and the desire to create a synergy between live performance and virtual reality. Our research comes together on two essential notions: The fragmentation of the space of representation and its influence on the setting in motion of the body.
Three isolated bodies inhabit a rhythmed scenic space. The hybrid scenography consists of a physical triptych staircase, as its virtual version is gradually being revealed and radically transformed. Step by step, from loneliness to co-presence, the performers embody the expansion of their environments and the staircase symbolizes a movement towards a form of symbiosis. Their gestures and voices are augmented by a musician whilst their gazes become cinematographic images projected on a screen, allowing the spectators to perceive poetic relations between the real and the virtual.
