Leaded by the sound of her walk, the blindfolded performer follows the line in the dark. Sneakers’s soles have been covered with Velcro in order to adhere to the line made of the complementary fabric.
The sound is captured by a DPA Lavallier microphone attached to the ankle, amplified and broadcasted by the church speakers, with only natural reverbs.
Expanding the sound of the effort, it induces the difficult separation in between the person and the ground. The constraint brings both unbalance and support in the walking. Summoning Bruce Nauman minimalist historical performance, sport and religious iconographies the performance is an attempt to create an act inspired by middle age « jugements de Dieu ».
