Fanny Austry is a “suspensive”, a woman of the air, as the members of the Rhizome company call themselves. With Bleu tenace, she offers a solo performance six meters in the air. A moment of suspension where self-transcendence meets contemplation.
A blue mast stands out against the azure sky. The artist climbs it with her bare hands, dressed all in blue. In the evanescent calm, she clings to this “structure-sculpture”, a kind of fragment of an ideogram, and climbs relentlessly.
To the rhythm of electro music composed by Marielle Chatain, Fanny Austry defies the void. The result is a breathtaking performance. Quite simply, extraordinary.
