Yann Leguay: Filtered By Fire
Opera
Filtered by Fire is a site-specific nighttime performance by Yann Leguay in Schlosspark. Its central artistic material is fire, presented as an archaic source of energy for sound rather than as a conventional musical instrument. The flames are the protagonists of a minimalist composition. Heat moves and shapes the sound, while variations caused by the burning of wood become part of the performance's audible behavior. The work treats the changing material conditions of the fire as an active compositional element.
