PISTE CYCLABLE

This mechanical sculpture is both luminous and sonic, and consists of a series of ‘scrollers,’ outdated lighting devices that produce a series of coloured filters to scroll in front of a projector. In sum, the piece generates a malleable mosaic that reacts to ambient sounds by tracing variable geometries while generating music from its own mechanics as it unfolds.

About the Artist

Founded in 2013 as a structure to support the increasing activity of a trio of artists, Bruno Bouchard, Philippe Lessard Drolet, and Pascal Robitaille, TRI is now a recognised multidisciplinary production company in Quebec City, with work that combines sound, image, object, engineering, and the living world. The artists’ creative processes focus foremost on forging fertile sites from which complex, unique, and sensitive artistic forms can emerge.

TRI advocates using disciplines as tools or material rather than as ends in themself, in the search of new connections between practices, new writing that deploys languages the projects themselves inspire. The group also prioritises developing numerous original productions as collaborations with various milieux.

TRI is a laboratory of ongoing research, malleable and free, driven by a desire to contribute to the dynamism of the artistic landscape, and appealing to the sensibility and intelligence of the audience. Their work invites the viewer to a museum in motion, sculpts space in time.
