This retrofuturistic universe is composed of video, sounds and sculptures created from recycled, natural or industrial elements. In resonance with current ecological and technological issues, this hybrid environment summons ancestral mythologies or contemporary imaginations of the deep sea, underwater archaeology or fiction, bioluminescence and bioacoustics.
The disturbing and fascinating atmosphere created evokes the destruction, by climate change and marine pollution, of a world still so unexplored and fantasized.
The title "The Midnight Zone" refers to the bathypelagic zone, the layer of the water column located between 1,000 and 4,000 meters where sunlight no longer penetrates.
