The second part - after Inspire - of a season devoted to our relationship with time, Les Orages [The Storms] expresses a sense of urgency and expectation, a kind of torpor or latency, nourishing the hope as much as the fear of a liberating breath.

Les Orages is conceived as a saturated landscape, on the brink of collapse. It is the image of a world that is about to undergo a profound, radical and - we fear - violent metamorphosis. As if, under the apparent calm of an order considered infallible, loads were building up, new arrangements were being formed, waiting for a kind of implosion to take place and unfold.
