Magma

It’s a magical, immersive universe where sound and drawing merge into a totally improvised narrative and artistic journey. Equipped with an overhead projector, a bass guitar, a multitude of objects and electronic and multicasting effects, artists Sébastien Pittet, Sébastien Guenot and Mathias Durand inspire each other as they tell a story of ancestral proportions, drawing its source from nature and the depths of the human spirit. In this way, sound and visual matter are transformed in the present moment, revealing forms and textures that are at once animal, human and mysterious.

Sébastien Pittet, author of the Wanu solo bass project, had the idea of surrounding himself with other artists in order to explore his sound through different dimensions. It was after playing in the studio of visual artist Sébastien Guenot that the idea of a joint creation was born. In 2023, their project was extended to include an original multidiffusion installation by Paris-based musician and acoustician Mathias Durand.
