Act.1_Brisk
As part of the Art Explora festival and in partnership with the Shems'y National Circus School in Salé, artists Klara Fontibus, Nassim Azarzar, and Aliocha Tazi invite students to participate in the creation process of Act.1_Brise. Students from all disciplines will be able to explore the various elements used to compose flying (or fixed) structures in order to develop a choreographic and narrative performance. The research conducted during this workshop will culminate in two public outdoor performances.
Dates and times
Thursday, October 17, starting at 3 p.m.
Address
Fort Rottembourg, Avenue Mokhtar Gazoulit, Rabat
Act.1_Brise is an ephemeral and evolving attraction, inspired by informal urban practices such as street vendors, musicians, storytellers, magicians, and toy car rentals. Itinerant and aerial, Act.1_Brise invites individual and collective reflection based on a repertoire of forms that can be assembled into flying structures. The environment is transformed into a playground and observation area. Between floating habitats and aerial sculptures, these elements trace the contours of an ephemeral territory. This experience aims to transcend the limits of everyday life, offering a playful and immersive space where the boundaries between observation and action blur. An aerial and terrestrial ballet, fostering moments of exchange and interaction to poetically reflect on ways of "catching the wind." The installation will be created in collaboration with the Shemsy Circus School.
This activation at the Museum of Photography corresponds to the second presentation of Act.1_Brise. This new territory has not been prepared beforehand, so the performance will be adapted to this space.
Klara Fontibus (1996, FR-BE) creates an unfolding narrative corpus stemming from her screen-printing practice and lived spaces. In her work, we observe the displacement of motifs—organic forms, grids, traces—across a collection of objects she designs and conceives to control the uses of daily life, revealing their inherent uncertainties. Everyday objects thus become the territory of all possibilities. Klara invites us to inhabit them, to desire them with her, within these spaces. Today, her practice focuses more rigorously on the art of dining, creating shared moments centered on a gesture, where the visitor is invited to become a host.
Nassim Azarzar (1989, FR-MA) draws his pictorial language from typically Moroccan imagery, transposing their forms and exploring their meanings across diverse contexts. This research has led to the creation of his own visual language, reflecting the complexity of defining his identity as someone born in France to Moroccan parents. Nassim's aesthetic exploration encompasses decorative arts, painting, drawing, sculpture, graphic design, and experimental film.
Aliocha Tazi (1995, FR-BE-MA) creates interactive forms derived from both individual and collective practices. These forms are composed of aggregates of repurposed materials and repurposed objects. Constantly moving between the studio, public space, and exhibition space, Aliocha generates cycles of transformation where the status of objects oscillates between artwork and artifact. At times, he recounts lived experiences; at others, he creates moments of encounter where his objects, transformed into welcoming spaces, are activated.
