The artist Fran\u00e7ois Vogel enhanced these musical creations by bringing them to life in a series of captivating videos.

He continued his education at the French school of Arts D\u00e9coratifs, graduating from the video art department in 1992.<\/p><p>In the early 1990s, he collaborated on visual effects for films. Gaining international recognition, he was sought after as a director by numerous production companies in the United States, thanks to his talent for crafting poetic worlds and inventing innovative visual effects techniques.<\/p><p>In parallel, he developed an eclectic artistic practice in the field of visual arts, which he showcased at various international festivals. His works, including photographs, experimental films, and interactive installations, have been exhibited and presented in cultural institutions in France and abroad.

His empirical approach playfully and poetically examines the connections between individuals, their environment, and the passage of time.<\/p><p>Artiste&#8217;s website: https:\/\/francoisvogel.com\/fr<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-4c76590\" data-id=\"4c76590\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8de3343 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"8de3343\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/festival2025.videoformes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/portrait_francois_vogel-1024x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-9955\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/festival2025.videoformes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/portrait_francois_vogel-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/festival2025.videoformes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/portrait_francois_vogel-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/festival2025.videoformes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/portrait_francois_vogel-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/festival2025.videoformes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/portrait_francois_vogel-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/festival2025.videoformes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/portrait_francois_vogel-1536x1536.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/festival2025.videoformes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/portrait_francois_vogel-146x146.jpg 146w, https:\/\/festival2025.videoformes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/portrait_francois_vogel-50x50.jpg 50w, https:\/\/festival2025.videoformes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/portrait_francois_vogel-75x75.jpg 75w, https:\/\/festival2025.videoformes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/portrait_francois_vogel-85x85.jpg 85w, https:\/\/festival2025.videoformes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/portrait_francois_vogel-80x80.jpg 80w, https:\/\/festival2025.videoformes.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/portrait_francois_vogel.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-6465d93 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"6465d93\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-12b5de7\" data-id=\"12b5de7\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-07c5bf6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"07c5bf6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">PORTRAIT D'ArtistE :<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7c43895 elementor-widget elementor-widget-video\" data-id=\"7c43895\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;youtube_url&quot;:&quot;https:\\\/\\\/www.youtube.com\\\/watch?v=8aeBK3m7PGM&quot;,&quot;video_type&quot;:&quot;youtube&quot;,&quot;controls&quot;:&quot;yes&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"video.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*!

What do we see? What do we hear? What do we see?<\/b><\/li><\/ul><div><p>The work presented here is more akin to a projection than an installation in the classical sense. It&#8217;s a series of music videos resulting from a collaboration between my visual exploration of image distortion and the compositions of the Catalan duo L&#8217;Arann\u00e0. On screen, we discover the two musicians singing, dancing and playing, staged in varied, poetic universes. The songs they perform are inspired by the poems of Catalan author Merc\u00e8 Rodoreda, blending their melodies with the power of words.<\/p><\/div><ul><li><b>What&#8217;s it all about?<\/b><\/li><\/ul><p>The poems that inspired the music and images explore themes linked to nature and emblematic figures: flowers (\u201cFlor Negra\u201d, \u201cFlor Vergonya\u201d), a witch (\u201cLa Salamandra\u201d), a whale (\u201cLa meva Cristina\u201d), or a gardener (\u201cJard\u00ed Vora el Mar\u201d). Merc\u00e8 Rodoreda&#8217;s unique, vibrant prose conveys deep emotions and evocative sensations. My visual work extends these impressions, translating this intensity into plastic experiments and games of distortion.<\/p><ul><li><b>Is this the first time this installation has been presented to the public? Can you tell us a little about the process involved in creating this work?<\/b><\/li><\/ul><p>These videos have already been partially unveiled at concerts or broadcast in fragments on social networks. However, this is the first time they&#8217;ve been given a proper, dedicated projection, offering them a space for contemplation in their own right.<br \/>The project began when the duo L&#8217;Arann\u00e0 asked me to put the tracks from their album \u201cLa Salamandra\u201d into images.\u00a0 I liked their project and their spirit. I went to Catalonia to film them in a variety of contexts and settings. I then worked on the sequences in depth using digital techniques, integrating visual and spatiotemporal distortions to breathe a singular dimension into these videos.<\/p><div>\u00a0<\/div><div><ul><li><b>What artists (from all disciplines) or art forms in general have inspired your work, and what references, if any, have you drawn on for this installation?<br \/><\/b><br \/>My discovery of the animated films of Czech filmmaker Yan Svankmajer left a deep impression on me. His work is so far removed from the usual cinema that you could almost imagine it was another art form. I love being surprised by new visual languages.<br \/>The \u201cLa Salamandra\u201d project doesn&#8217;t call on any particular references, not consciously anyway!<\/li><\/ul><ul><li><b>What problems, constraints and challenges did you encounter in the process?<\/b><\/li><\/ul><p>All the images produced in these videos are digitally processed after shooting. It&#8217;s a lot of post-production work that I do on my own. Producing this type of image for an entire music album is a challenge in terms of time. We chose to reuse some sequences by looping them.<\/p><ul><li><b>Can you give one or more Internet links where we can see your work?<\/b><\/li><\/ul><p>Instagram: www.instagram.com\/francois.vogel\/<br \/>My website: www.francoisvogel.com\/<br \/>Tiktok : www.tiktok.com\/@francois.vogel<\/p><\/div><ul><li><b>Can you give us a few keywords that might describe your installation?<\/b><\/li><\/ul><p>Poetry<br \/>Music<br \/>distortion<br \/>flowers<br \/>nature<br \/>Catalonia<br \/>Merc\u00e8 Rodoreda<br \/>L&#8217;Arann\u00e0<\/p><div><b>\u00a0<\/b><\/div><ul><li><b>A few words about your artistic career? At what point in your life did you become interested in digital art? Can you make a living from your art?<\/b><\/li><\/ul><div>\u00a0<\/div><p>My artistic journey began as a child when I was drawing and observing the distorted reflections of Christmas baubles and chrome faucets. I went on to study art at Arts D\u00e9co (ENSAD).<br \/>I grew up with the arrival of personal computers. In the 1980s, my parents had a Thomson TO7, on which I wrote my first programs to generate images. With their Super 8 camera, I also experimented with frame-by-frame filming. As a teenager, I made my first digital films by combining these two passions.<br \/>I earn my living mainly by making commissioned films and commercials. It&#8217;s a job I&#8217;ve always been able to combine with my personal work. It&#8217;s a great opportunity because it&#8217;s always allowed me to finance my personal work in complete freedom, without ever having to justify my creative choices. At times, my personal work has also earned me a little money, in the form of distribution by the short film agency or broadcasting on TV channels, and also in the form of purchases of NFT digital works. I&#8217;ve also been lucky enough to take part in a number of artists&#8217; residencies, which have enabled me to create personal works while being paid and supported in my work. These have been my most rewarding experiences. Feeling supported in your creative process is invaluable for an artist.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Thursday,
