Le Plancher de Jeannot

Creation 2013

Monodrama
Music by Sébastian Rivas for soprano, flute, clarinet, piano, violin, cello, computer music, video and photography

This project is drawn from the writings that were carved by a young schizophrenic into the floor of his room, for months on end before he let himself starve to death. This floor delivers a raw text, testimony on delirium, in addition to being an object of art brut, in which the boundary between madness and artistic expression is blurred.
