ABOUT

NAMPHAISE is a concert installation inspired by the rather unknown legend of St. Namphaise: a medieval saint seeks liberation from earthly contamination but is again and again confronted with the dark, animal sides of human existence, even beyond his death. Ensemble Schallfeld transforms this myth into a room of experience, in which sound, image and light offer as many interpretations as the people who enter it.

CHAPTER III

Even with so much light, darkness lurks and claims his place at the table. A cook’s sinister recipe turns salvation into condemnation. And Namphaise turns once again his back to mankind and his face towards God. Another chapter, another restart. Since no one seems to fast... More boiled toddlers anyone?
