Artists Timothée Engasser, Théo Peruchon and Jérémy Saint-Léger have been invited to take up a research and creative residency at the Maison forte de Hautetour in spring-summer 2024, where they will explore future climatic events in the Mont-Blanc region and the meteorological rituals and rituals associated with them.
Through local memory, contemplation and staging, the collective will invite local audiences and mountain users to reflect on new rituals of forecasting, invocation and celebration of future atmospheric and climatic events. The artists will engage in a dialogue with the folklores associated with meteorological and celestial phenomena, those that touch on attempts to interpret and modify the weather in order to tame it or provoke its wrath.
Anticipating certain future disruptions, not only on the basis of scientific calculations, but also through the arts of prediction and divination, where the imagination can create a malleable reality, the collective will offer a restitution of their research in various audiovisual forms, in which fantasized meteorological forms, gestures and rituals will take place.
