The Monsters’ theatre
Maëva Jacques & Claudia Cortés Espejo (France, Belgique) / Immersive video mapping / 4 min 55
The City of Lille used to be called “Isla” from the Latin “Insula”, and was literally an island surrounded by the Deûle. The Canal Saint-Pierre was one of the numerous canals that encircled the city. Although it is now burried under the ground and hidden from the passers-by’s view, that place seems to have kept within its walls all of the echoes from the past. A mysterious atmosphere emerges, opening the doors of imagination. “Attracted by that curious mix of history and dreamlike atmosphere, we decided to tell the story of Lille and the Canal as a tale, outlining its history from its creation until its closure. All from the point of view of the monsters which seem to live inside the canal from time immemorial.”
