En amour is an immersive and interactive experience, at the crossroads of the performing arts, performance art and visual arts installation. This work offers the chance to experience a symbolic metamorphosis around the theme of love and separation. Its narrative is rooted in an intimate story, opening up to greater, to share a journey of sensations, emotions, shapes, colours, sounds and words that will awaken, deglaze and strengthen our love. En amour is part of a serie of Rituals conceived by artistic company Adrien M & Claire B as spaces for experimentation, both collective and intimate, and placed under the auspices of a powerful gentleness.The installation-experience Last minute, first of this series, created in 2022 is a ritual of care for the dead. The project En amour, a ritual for restoring love, continues this series of Rituals.

Adrien M & Claire B
The company Adrien M & Claire B places its work in the field of digital arts since 2004. Its creations are performances and exhibitions, that associate reality and virtuality. Its specificity is the custom-made development of its computing tools. Among the artistic and technological stakes, the attention is focused on the human being and its body, by using contemporary tools in the service of a timeless poetry, developing and using a visual language based on game and pleasure as mediums of the imagination. Today, the company counts around 30 collaborators. Its headquarter and production offices are based in Lyon (Rhône, France). Villa Aphéa, its research and creation venue, is located in Crest (Drôme, France). Part of the venue’s equipment was acquired with help from the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Region. The company is subsidised and accredited in France by the DRAC Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes and the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Region. It is also supported by the City of Lyon.
