QUICK, A SELFIE ! A purely visual, no-dialogue performance.

A show/performance involving images painted with eight hands and four voices, using video, smartphones, paintbrushes and rollers. An indoor show, open to all, ages 8 and up.

In "QUICK, A SELFIE!", four visual artists, performers and singers, from their scaffolding on the stage and in an overflow of rhythms, songs and colours, will challenge the spectators (especially children and teenagers) on the issue of their image today. And they are going to manipulate their image, capture it, divert it, steal it, restore it, reinvent it and, above all, make them see it differently.

It will be a show of images painted, photographed and filmed directly on site. Images that will follow each other, jostle each other, cross paths, fade away, reappear, and finally, images that will tell the story that the encounter we want to provoke will produce.

They will be four visual artists, in flesh and blood, four singers, in rhythm and voice, who will create these images with their bare hands. Well, with their bare hands, or almost, with brushes, cameras, smartphones, and then... yes, with their bare hands too in the end.
