Souterraine, a performance-tour by Louise Hervé

The Grotte de l’Observatoire involves a descent of 300 steps along fault lines, across stalagmite-covered floors, and between the walls of tunnels blasted out by dynamite.

Petrified within the strata of time, one encounters traces of human and non-human life, catalogued and uncatalogued collections, ever-changing light displays, celebrations, and an underground utopia.

Here, in the cavern, one feels at home: what one cannot see, one can imagine.
