ABOUT
If you can dream – and not make dreams your master
If you can think – and not make thoughts your aim
If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster
And treat those two impostors just the same
If, Rudyard Kipling – Full Version here
Fatigue is not simply an isolated personal feeling. Over the past decades, fatigue has become a subject of research as a social, cultural, and scientific issue.
The modern Olympic Games show humanity’s aspiration to infinitely surpass its own physical and emotional limits.
The idea of progress and performance was invented in sports from the 18th century on-wards. Since the second half of the 20th century, in a society where human performance is measured by work and excellency, everyone must face an overload and acceleration of doings for increased performance, resulting in constant physical fatigue.
Can the state of tirdness be fundemental to Beings?
The exhibition “Spring Out Of Tirdness” invites artists to question the fatigue and our individual or collective doings, as a shared human condition and to take a new look at what shapes it and what it generates.

RONI BEN ARI
Roni Ben Ari, Israel, is a multidisciplinary freelance photographer. As an artist, my works are characterized by long-term social studies in which the human landscape is the common thread. The subjects of my projects are international. In every country on the globe, you can meet an old man, homeless people, minorities, gypsies, prostitutes, wars, and much more. For three years, I followed the Ethiopian community that failed to integrate into our country, and therefore chose to live in a “ghetto” among themselves.
“Each time a woman stands up for herself, without knowing it possibly, without claiming it, she stands up for all women.” ― Maya Angelou

ANA ISABEL FREITAS
A Portuguese artist living in Paris since 2015, Ana Isabel Freitas works on themes such as memory, traditions, places, and the people who live there both in painting and in documentary cinema. She paints “contemplative human landscapes” in which emotions are expressed through colors and texture of the supports that she chooses and manipulates with sewing and embroidery, to create textures, lines and subtle details that enrich the painting and fix the gaze. Every construction leaves a trace, every trace is construction.

The Delayed Rain
ACOUSMATIC PIECE, Concept by Sikai LI
+
Free Improvisation
Guitar : Sikai Li
Voice: Dorian Campagne
Violin: Tiona Andrianaivomananjaona
La pluie retardée symbolise le retard naturel entre la précipita on et son arrivée sur nos vies, reflétant ainsi les périodes d’a ente, de doute et de contemplation
En collaboration avec AZILIZ de VULPILLIERES, qui a écrit un texte
sur la pluie, l’attente et le retard, le processus de création s’est déroulé de manière asynchrone.
The piece juxtaposes movement and stillness, with the rain as a dynamic backdrop, providing moments of tension, calm and revelation.
VINCENT LEFEBVRE
Alongside his craft and creativity, Vincent explores the many facets of live performance.
In the 90s, he developed the character of Pétunia, a drag queen who criss-crossed the alternative Parisian nightlife scene.
Always in search of movement, he later explored contemporary dance with Aurélia Jarry, influenced by the legacy of Pina Bausch, as well as various forms of theater and corporal expression. Currently working with a performance group from the Belacqua workshops in the 19th arrondissement, led by Gauthier Ployette, he is deepening his quest for authenticity and reappropriation of the body.
SIKAI LI
After studying in China, Sikai LI pursued his passion for art and music in France, where he composes and improvises on guitar. A graduate of the Beaux-Arts in Marseille, he also discovered electroacoustic music.
His digital creations led him to a residency at The Camp in Aix-en-Provence, under the direction of Éric Viennot, where he explored sound art and technology with international creatives.
Settling in Paris, he joined the electroacoustic composition class at the CRR de Paris with Paul Ramage and Jonathan Prager, while developing his guitar improvisation with Philippe Pannier. His composition and improvisation practice has taken him to such diverse venues as Festival Futura, Le Cube, Mains d’OEuvre, Petit Palais and La Muse en Circuit, among others.

In 2023, she joined Philippe Pannier’s free improvisation class at CRR 93 in Aubervilliers/La Courneuve, discovering a creative space blending various performing arts disciplines. She also attended theatrical improvisation workshops with the LIFI (Ligue Française d’Improvisation).

2. Yanling LUO,
PhD candidate in philosophy at the University of Paris I Panthéon-Sorbonne
about Repetition — a process of creation and exhaustion
Yanling LUO
Présentation
Quel est le rôle du processus de répétition dans la création artistique ? Pourquoi a-t-on tendance à répéter les expériences désagréables au lieu de les éviter ? La question se pose tant du point de vue épistémologique que psychologique dans les théories postmodernes. Nous allons essayer de rassembler quelques mots-clés qui nous permettront une mise en perspective de la conception de « répétition » dans la psychanalyse, et éventuellement d’en dégager les ressources conceptuelles pour les analyses des œuvres d’art.
Biographie
Yanling LUO est doctorante en philosophie à Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne. Ses études portent sur la philosophie chinoise tant classique que contemporaine et visent à démontrer la façon dont les philosophes tentent de la comprendre et de l’interpréter dans une perspective métaphysique. Sa recherche s’inscrit dans une problématique plus ample concernant le lien intrinsèque entre la métaphysique et l’esthétique qui interroge le sens de la créativité et de l’homme. Elle a publié plusieurs articles en esthétique et en métaphysique et a traduit un livre Le Pouvoir Esthétique (Baldine Saint Girons, Editions Manucius) en chinois.
