Festival de la Bâtie – Une Rencontre Suspendue

An intimate aerial encounter, Une rencontre suspendue brings together hair suspension, acrobatic play, guitar harmonies and a textured singing voice. Conceived by the collective Association VOILÀ VOILÀ, this short creation features aerial acrobat Lili Parson Piguet and musician Jeanne Pâris. The piece mixes fragile physicality and musical intimacy to trace a delicate complicity between movement and sound, where everyday materials become instruments of tension and tenderness. Presented as a compact, sensory performance within the festival context.

Tight vocal exchanges, layered production and call-and-response sequences foreground communal dance and a nocturnal, electric atmosphere. The staging favours close interaction and club-oriented dynamics.
