« What if the motto of Biarritz already told us everything about the magnetism of this small village, now known worldwide — and, beyond that, revealed something essential about our relationship to the world? »

The attraction of Biarritz raises metaphysical questions that extend far beyond the beauty of its coastline, its imperial history, its legends, or seaside tourism. Spanning nearly 1,000 square meters, « J’ai pour moi les vents les astres et la mer » (I Have for Myself the Winds, the Stars and the Sea)  — brings together the perspectives of 31 artists and authors, curated by Franck Cazenave.

Ttransdisciplinary in nature (drawing, painting, photography, literature, video, sculpture…), the exhibition presents nearly 150 works.

Within this context, Yu Linn Humm — musician, composer, visual artist and actress — joined dancer and choreographer Karim Naar for a one-time performance specifically created for this group exhibition in Biarritz, France.

— May 2023

Presented here are a selection of photographs and video stills capturing the spontaneous materials that emerged from the encounter between these two artists, observed and recorded through the lens of director Claudia Lederer.
