Philippe Quesne | Vivarium Studio | France
Science-fiction about the origins of the world
The „Big Bang“ happens very quietly and unspectacularly. Final preparations are just being completed, when suddenly you notice that it has already started – life on earth. A group of people in a studio or a laboratory, simulates the origins of the world. With simple actions and processes they throw light on the genesis of life: from an amorphous mass in the deepest darkness, living entities emerge, perhaps the first single-celled organisms. No sooner have they learned to move in an upright manner, than they become occupants of the stone age, huddled around a fire. From there we jump forward to the camp-fires of the Wild West, and then its not such a large leap to the camping holidays of today. In contemplative, silent tableau's and associative sequences, Philippe Quesne, and his cast, muses on the strange nature of Homo sapiens and his attempt to create a picture of himself and the world he lives in. With subtle humour, Quesne analyses our relationship with nature, which we simultaneously carry deep within us and yet also insist on destroying. Perhaps the Big Bang is yet to come?
Directly following the première of Pièce pour la technique with the stage technicians of the Schauspielhaus Hannover, Philippe Quesne will show his latest work, Big Bang, by his company Vivarium Studio.
