C'est quoi cette peinture ? C'est pas une peinture, c'est une carte. Et toi tu devrais réussir à te frayer un chemin à l'intérieur. Un palais de mémoire est érigé pour accueillir, on s’y donne rendez-vous régulièrement. Entre autres choses, on y cultive l’oubli.
Ce palais n’a pas d’adresse, il est plus proche d’un feu de camp que d’une pyramide, sans fondations, il peut s’allumer et s’éteindre à peu près n’importe où. On en a fait une purée, un chant-yaourt, une fontaine, une guinche, un faux-souvenir, un merle, une carte qui parle. Tu peux toucher la surface où s'entrecroisent nos rides. Parce qu'en pleine fissure, il est
devenu difficile de tenir en place.
DUCTUS MIDI is a cartography emerging through bastard gestures: acoustic images, dancing tools, eatable storytellings. The starting point is a word that the artist recently discovered – ductus–, that in the Middle Ages defined a reading mode, whose sense was similar to the idea of 'going for a ride'. The artists decided to qualify this term as a non-official practice that can belong both to human and non human elements. Can both a fountain and a song-bird-imitator be a ductus? Moving from this question FORCE «G» drives a team of practitioners with their related practices (The Troubadour with its sounds and gestures; The Bastard with its dancing moves and words; and The Circuit with its music, vibrating materials and computer machines) in the elaboration of a ride, where practices and stories can be intertwined. A journey through the audience and with the audience, where the visual situations merge with the potentiality of the border between fantasy and true stories.
