For a call for projects on the theme of freedom, I proposed reworking Paul Éluard's poem, Liberté.
Resembling a theatre of shadows and light, the design delights in graphic, sometimes geometric compositions and bold contrasts, adorning the façade with a surreal note through intricate details that turn it into architectural jewelry. The animation unfolds these elements progressively in both 2D and 3D, deepening the contemplative mood, while particle effects and fluid, nature-inspired motion heighten an ethereal atmosphere that remains intangible, like a lucid dream. Throughout, music leads the production, carrying us from scene to scene and tableau to tableau, its soft, melodic orchestration leaving room for the sound design to interject intermittently and deepen our immersion in contemplation.
Sur la jungle et le désert
Sur les nids sur les genêts
Sur l'écho de mon enfance
J'écris ton nom
On the jungle and the desert
On the nests on the broom
On the echo of my infancy
I write your name
Sur chaque bouffée d'aurore
Sur la mer sur les bateaux
Sur la montagne démente
J'écris ton nom
On each puff of dawn
On the sea on the boats
On the crazed mountain
I write your name
