Ceci est mon cœur

Ceci est mon cœur

“Ceci est mon cœur” is an immersive poetic installation that explores a child’s journey toward reconciliation with his own body. Blending cinema, digital art, and performance, the work combines video mapping and connected clothing to create an intimate, sensory experience. For the first time, BLIESBRO incorporates spoken word, giving the poetic narrative a more embodied and immediate presence. The audience is immersed in an environment where images, sound, and text interact, expressing inner tensions, vulnerability, and the stages of emotional reconstruction. The piece offers a sensitive approach to self-repair, giving form to feelings that are often invisible or difficult to articulate. Premiering at the Venice Film Festival and selected at Cannes Film Festival, the installation was noted for its formal hybridity and its ability to expand the language of contemporary immersive storytelling. As a result, the piece has been awarded the ‘Breakthrough in Storytelling’ by Columbia University, New York.

BLIESBRO, an artistic duo from the Rhine region, has developed a multidisciplinary practice blending poetry, music, film and digital art, centred on ‘social poetry’. Their transmedia project “Soundhunters” (2015), co-produced with ARTE, transforms the world into a musical instrument and has received international acclaim, reaching as far as Lincoln Center and receiving the patronage of UNESCO. In 2019, they produced “Zero Impunity”, an innovative documentary on sexual violence in times of war, combining animation and live-action footage, acclaimed for its ability to represent the invisible. The film was nominated in 2021 for the Trophées Francophones du Cinéma. In 2024, they presented “Ceci est mon cœur”, an immersive installation blending video mapping and spoken word, selected for the festivals of Venice and Cannes, and subsequently awarded at Columbia University in 2025. They continued their research with “Les Gens de la Pluie” and developed a feature-length animated film, “Lyra et Armin”.
