Video mapping made during a creation residency organised by Rencontres Audiovisuelles as part of the Video Mapping Festival.
► Popera
While the statues of the facade of the Opera House tear themselves off their stands to live a romance only seen in the best ancient tragedies, some strange agitators get inside their stola to disturb the 2 lovers. To the sound of the electrical lyre, Bill Plympton makes the architecture explode and give a very personal vision of the opera.
