Blank Out: Festival d’Aix‐en‐Provence

About the Event

Inspired by texts by South African poet Ingrid Jonke, composer Michel Van der Aa invites us to reinvent the concept of 'total art' in the 21st century. Through the dialogue of a mother and her son, this work invites 3D cinema theatre, music, poetry and digital technologies to join forces to create a new language.
