A live acoustic intervention introduced crystal resonance into the space, where glass revealed light and scent rendered the air perceptible as matter. Entering the suspended passage created by Léa Dumayet, invited artist Lidiya Kolodina activated the installation through the sound of a rare glass harmonica, crafted with a specialised glass formula designed to produce a stable and crystalline tone.

As vibrations moved through the metastable forms, the atmosphere, and the body itself, the work shifted into a temporary state of resonance — bringing pulse, tension, and movement into the exhibition for 25 minutes.

For the performance, Lidiya Kolodina wore Castanea sativa, a sculptural armor by Andrea Bordács from the Armours of Belonging series. The armor was inspired by the chestnut shell, which protects something fragile with its spiny surface. The work reflected Bordács’s ongoing interest in forms of protection rooted not in defense, but in care, resistance, and preservation. As the sound of the glass harmonica resonated throughout the space, the armor became an integral part of the performance atmosphere, creating a subtle dialogue between body, fabric, and acoustic vibration.

The performance unfolded within CILIA and EXUVIAE, offering visitors the opportunity to experience the exhibitions through a subtle sonic environment where sound, material, scent, and movement continuously interacted.

Marie-Luce Nadal presents performative films and pigment prints on metal, staging the atmosphere as both subject and actor — an emotional, political, and volatile body. Through cloud choreography and experiments with natural elements, she draws out the weather’s agency as something embodied, contested, and alive.
