PAX [2022]

"PAX" is an immersive 16 channel audio installation complemented by interactive site-specific lighting. The piece is a 45 min seamless loop.

𝐏𝐀𝐗, « paix » en latin, propose un refuge pour l'esprit et les sens à l'écart de l'agitation et du tumulte quotidien. Un moment pour prendre une pause et déambuler dans le paysage musical spatialisé de Louis-Olivier Desmarais, artiste sonore montréalais.
Inspirée par les retraites de Louis-Olivier à l'Abbaye de Saint-Benoît-du-Lac, l’expérience offre un espace séculier favorable à la plénitude et à l’apaisement. Suspendus aux fenêtres, 13 vitraux de papier d'Iseult Schreiber teintent la salle de douceur et accueillent l'éclairage vivant de Daniel Freder, rendant la promenade propice à l'illumination.
Halte de paix, retraite séculière en plein cœur de la ville, PAX est véritablement une chapelle dans une chapelle.
