Monument video mapping
• Jésus Baptista (France, Portugal) – Residency

The Video Mapping Festival invites you to discover the Courthouse from a new angle! The concrete tower offers an unexpected view of the Old Town, thanks to its brutalist architecture that contrasts with the historic surroundings. Its back facade comes to life under the gaze of artist Jesus Baptista.

► Dyade
Dyade explores the tension inherent in justice, the tension between two inseparable forces that are both opposed and complementary. A pair bound by an irreducible relationship: the two elements exist fully only in the gap that unites them, in this living tension where balance, confrontation and interdependence play out between what is revealed and what is concealed.

Creation: Jésus Baptista
Original music: Amadeo Savio
