***"Inside the Wave",*about an art-science collaboration
*"Folds, Pleats and Waves"*
Seas, oceans and waves remain largely unknown.
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.
*Sandrine Teixido*(anthropologist, CentraleSupélec -
Université Paris-Saclay, Université de Toulouse) and
*Aurélien Gamboni*(artist, HEAD, Geneva)// (project

*"Once upon a time there was ...**a maelström**",*about the
project */A Tale as a tool/*//
"Maelström", the sound of the word in itself demonstrates
the terror of humans when facing the liquid fury of the
ocean. This fear /of/ nature, at the core of Edgar Poe's
short story /"A Descent into the Maelström"/ in which one
can survive only by nature close observation, has become the
starting point for an artistic as well as scientific
investigation, this time about a fear /for /nature.
/A tale as a tool/is a scientific and 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.
