Passages is the result of a meeting between two artists, photographer Antoine Cardi and singer-songwriter Marc Euvrie. Beyond their own singularities, they share common aesthetic concerns. These points of convergence gave rise to a desire to work together, which for each of them was a first foray into a field of experimentation combining photography and music.
It was also an intuition that two differentiated practices could nourish each other by questioning the notion of boundaries specific to each medium, understood as the perimeter within which different influences come into contact, into friction, to resonate together and generate a composite work in which the practice of each influences the foundations of that of the other.
Following an initial experiment (in summer 2024), during which the two artists were able to try out this artistic association in Europe, and more particularly in the Balkans, they now aim to develop it into a permanent project.
The notion of borders is central to Passages. Geopolitical and cultural borders, since the idea is to tour several Central European countries in a series of concerts, meeting a different audience each day. By immediately appealing to the senses, music has the ability to transcend cultural boundaries, enabling the immediate sharing of common emotions and experiences, even between people of different backgrounds. Photography, by virtue of its ability to record the world, has the capacity to bear witness to this cross-border encounter made possible by music, and to offer an account of it once the experience of itinerancy is over. Beyond this, the project will also provide an opportunity to examine the boundaries specific to the two media, and to experiment with the ways in which their respective conditions of use influence their concrete practice.
With a career spanning more than 20 years and over 700 concerts worldwide, in Europe, Asia, North America, the Balkans and the Middle East, Marc Euvrie offers a unique, immersive musical experience, both solo and in collaboration. Blending introspective atmospheres, deep emotions and a mastery of various instruments (piano, cello, guitar, drums and MAO), he explores neo-classical, ambient, drone, electronic and cinematic genres. Marc performs in three distinct formats: solo piano (under his own name Marc Euvrie), electro-ambient with The Eye of Time, and ciné-concert with Samsara. Marc Euvrie's compositions offer a profound artistic and sensory dimension.
Antoine Cardi trained as a historian. After several years devoted to university teaching and research, he turned to photography, with a documentary approach. One of the directions taken by his work is interested in the temporal dimension of places, their transformation and the way photography can become a discourse on the past. Through his attention to commonplace, vernacular, everyday elements (spaces, objects, etc.), reflections of an era, a place, the state of a society, he questions the relationship between history (an objectified past) and memory (a subjectivized past).
