TP directed by Emmanuelle Lainé

Emmanuelle Lainé was the guest artist of the third occur­rence of Académie vivante. She col­lab­o­rated with stu­dents in Epigenetics at the Paris Diderot University. Their work focused on issues of trans­parency and assim­i­la­tion of objects, stem­ming from exper­i­ments at the macro­scopic scale.

Participants set up four groups. Each focused on a specific theme related to their aca­demic and sci­en­tific prac­tice and informed by their everyday expe­ri­ence of the uni­ver­sity campus, namely exper­i­men­ta­tion, chance, archi­tec­ture, and inter­per­sonal rela­tion­ships. Session after ses­sion, they con­ceived, shot and edited short films with the guid­ance of Bétonsalon’s team and Emmanuelle Lainé, while the artist recorded and doc­u­mented their their own cre­ative and reflexive pro­cess.

The course cul­mi­nated in a ded­i­cated ses­sion held in Bétonsalon’s exhi­bi­tion space, during which the Académie vivante stu­dents were the very first to inhabit Emmanuelle Lainé’s instal­la­tion, show their works, and see them­selves embedded in the images and sounds col­lected by the artist.
