    Creating links, breathing, lis­tening, encour­aging the share of cre­ative pro­cesses between arts and sciences. 



    As part of the “Académie de Bétonsalon”, sup­ported by Daniel and Nina Carasso Foundation, the artist Anna Holveck led a series of work­shops with 45 stu­dents of Master 1 in genetics from the Université de Paris, with Jonathan Weitzman, pro­fessor of genetics and director of the lab­o­ra­tory Epigenetics and Cell Fate of the Université de Paris. 



    Anna Holveck con­siders the body as a tool, an instru­ment. She makes it sound, in the leg, in the arm, in the dif­ferent parts of the face. This “body-tool”, won­der­fully com­plex, reap­pears in her work; the vibra­tions move from object to object, as in a great ballet in move­ment. The work looks for the sen­si­tive, an infra-thin of the rela­tion­ship between people or places.



    The stu­dents, in half-groups, were invited to pay specific atten­tion to their imme­diate envi­ron­ment: lis­tening to a fridge, breaking down the kettle song, inter­preting the sounds of the street by hum­ming, mur­muring, whistling.
