2/3 - La Léproserie
(2013)

In 2011, Bastien and I met when we were invited to collaborate with each other by Myriam Kridi, the former programmer of the Théâtre de l'Usine, Geneva. At that time, Bastien was mainly involved in graphic design, and I working with in-situ performance. Initially, we talked of installing a small sailboat on set and working around maritime mythologies and the concept of drifting. From this first proposal we retained only the name - Caravelle. In our next work together, "The Red Factory,” created for "Les Urbaines” festival at Lausanne, we radicalised our collaborative practice through the abandonment of decorative and myth-making attempts in our combined gestures.

In bare spaces we construct graphic landscapes using our bodies as measuring tools. Our interaction with the site reveals a perspectival anamorphosis, visible to the audience from a single point of view.
