Residency : Andante by Félix Blume
📅 Production Residency at Avatar: April 21 to May 8, 2025
📅 Presentation at the Festival International de Musique Actuelle de Victoriaville: May 12 to 18, 2025
From April 21 to May 8, Avatar is pleased to welcome Félix Blume for the development of his sound work Andante. After an initial creation phase at Pivô Research in Brazil, this production residency at Avatar marks the final stage of the project, leading to its presentation at the Festival International de Musique Actuelle de Victoriaville.
For several months now, Avatar has been supporting the artist in developing Andante. His residency at Avatar will be the final, essential step to complete the mechanisms and resonating boxes of the installation. In Québec City, citizens are invited to take part in the creative process. By walking alongside the artist, they are directly contributing to the composition of Andante—a sound installation made up of several shoes that beat to the rhythm of the city’s walkers, transforming the urban soundscape into a collective pulse.
