The film, co-produced by prestigious institutions such as Schauspielhaus Zürich , LUMA Foundation , Superblue , TBA21–Academy , HARTWIG ART FOUNDATION , The Shed , and The Whitney Museum of American Art , is a multidimensional creation that spans across various artistic mediums. The interaction between sound, light, and video plays a central role in this work, providing an immersive experience that challenges the boundaries of traditional storytelling.

Maria HASSANI, CANCELLED 📍The Landscaped Park, Luma Foundation, Arles ▪️ iDzia installation : the sound, multicasting for sound creation The Gardens of the Luma Foundation  in Arles  served as the setting for a unique artistic experience, showcasing the sound work of artist and choreographer Maria Hassabi . For this occasion, Fohhn LX11 speakers  were placed on the grass, amplifying the impact of the performance within this natural and welcoming environment. These speakers, with their precise diffusion capabilities, provided an immersive sound experience, perfectly aligned with the work created by Hassabi during her residency at the Luma Foundation . Maria Hassabi , an artist renowned for her exploration of the limits of the body and movement, spent three months in residence at the foundation. At the end of this period, she presented her performance titled CANCELLED , a conceptual work that combines the body , time , and immobility  in a deep reflection on the human condition. CANCELLED  challenges the notions of time  and human dynamism , exploring the idea of prolonged immobility and slowness as ways to address questions of perception and the transformation of the body in space. The performance was built around the concept of the absence of rapid movement and the importance of stillness in the creative process. By playing with extremely slow tempos, Maria Hassabi created a work that plunges the audience into a reflection on the passage of time and how the human figure evolves and interacts with its environment. This experience highlighted subtle contrasts between the stillness of the body and the enveloping sounds created by the multidirectional sound diffusion , allowing the audience to perceive nuances invisible to the naked eye but powerfully present through the sound. The sound installation by iDzia  played a key role in enhancing this work. With multidirectional sound diffusion, the spectators were immersed in a rich acoustic atmosphere, creating a resonance that reinforced the hypnotic effect of the performance. The sound diffusion technology enabled spatialization of sound, which accompanied and amplified the experience of slowness and immobility, making the performance even more poignant. Thus, Maria Hassabi's CANCELLED  was a unique experience where sound, stillness, and movement intertwined, offering the audience a profound reflection on time, the body, and human perception in an environment filled with calm and serenity.

Presented as a sequence of dreamlike images, the work is inspired by science fiction films as well as an interview Rachel Rose conducted with American astronaut David Wolf about his experience of spacewalks.

It invites viewers to explore invisible parts of our world, particularly representations of natural environments and animal species. The exhibition features innovative artists such as Joan Jonas and Sturtevant, presenting pioneering works that use drawing, performance, and video installation.

By using various media, including drawing, performance, and video, Sturtevant delves into ideas of the ephemeral, the elusive, and disappearance.

Sturtevant’s work in The Impermanent Display II  plunges us into bold perspectives on processes without a beginning or an end, inviting reflection on eternity and the ephemeral through powerful symbols. The fantastical and mythical creatures she evokes, while drawing from popular culture and visual representations, prompt questions about the cycles of life and death, as well as the ideas of disappearance and resilience in the face of impermanence. Sturtevant's works, with their multiple layers of meaning, encourage deep reflection on humanity's impact on the planet, the extinction of species, and the complex relationship between art, nature, and time. In this exhibition, the power of symbolism and the intensity of the video installation allow us to grasp the essence of these contemporary issues while offering a space for escape and contemplation in the fragile beauty of our world.

His works highlight the richness of African American culture while exploring the contradictions and challenges inherent in the Black condition within a world still marked by deep racial inequalities. This work represents an aesthetic and social quest for truth, a way for the artist to depict the constant struggle between forms of cultural expression and the realities of a society that struggles to reconcile its racial divisions. Through Live Evil , Jafa continues his exploration of the relationship between Black culture and the dominant society, while offering a reflection on how individuals and communities experience and engage with issues related to race, violence, spirituality, and resistance. His works aim to create a space for dialogue and provoke collective awareness about the importance of understanding and deconstructing racial relations. As a prolific producer, the artist seeks to capture the contradictions of our time while offering an artistic form of expression that transcends boundaries of genres and media. In this work, the experience of being Black—often absent or poorly represented in dominant narratives—takes on its full scope and strength, allowing the audience to feel the beauty, pain, and intensity of the experiences lived by Black communities.
