LA LOBA is an ambulatory, sensorial and immersive journey. Twelve live installations lasting up to three consecutive hours are presented in an atypical location that supports unique experiences of space and time.
Equipped with a map, visitors build their own edition of the work, drifting through hallways and rooms, discovering different tableaux that echo and complete each other.
The ensemble of micro-performances produces a hypnotic and meditative circuit without a clear beginning or ending. Through subtle sounds, whispers, gentle touch, bodies appearing and disappearing, performers troubling, moving and vulnerable, LA LOBA oscillates between reverie and contemplation, shadow and light.

« Experience takes us far away, into another world detached from reality. (…) Every temporal link fades away to make room for a timeless bubble where the mind is invited to immerse itself and take what it desires. » Jeanne Hourez pour Sors-Tu, 21 sept 2016
« I would have stayed for hours in this mystical place, in the company of these creatures from another time. » Sonia Reboul pour Querelles, 22 sept 2016
