Experience the strange satisfaction of witnessing the arrival of giants in the city centre
This installation is inspired by a phenomenon specific to social media culture: the short videos people watch on their phones that provide an odd satisfaction. Made up of three giant immersive tableaux, Étrangement satisfaisant offers the audience the chance to experience this feeling together. The animated sequences feature fantastical creatures and playful, curious giants and pay tribute to the pillars of the Quartier des spectacles – living, creating, learning and entertaining. While celebrating dance, food, cinema and music, these playful tableaux blur the lines between the very familiar and the strange in a way that is more than...satisfying.
