This will be followed by performances at the Gap Museum on July 23rd and 24th, which will include Louise (picture below) walking through the Museum, a musical walk designed with the complicity of the museum team. This has been designed to mimic walking in the forest, stopping in front of a work as one does in front of a landscape and letting the gaze unfold in a delicate dialogue with the music.
