Coccolite is the name of calcareous skeletons of coccolithophore – unicellular microalgae that form the phytoplankton found throughout seas and oceans. When these organisms die, the tiny limestone facets they have produced fall to the bottom and create the sludge that settles over time. Millions of years later, due to geological movements, coccoliths make up the cliffs against which the waves crash.

This live audiovisual show provides an opportunity for contemplation and discussion on the complexity of this process. It will be an opportunity to experiment with different points of view and the different dimensions that constitute it, whether tiny or gigantic. From ephemeral and diffuse life subject to the movement of water, the mass of mud in transformation and the static elevation of cliffs. An existence that is so tiny, yet turns into a mineral wall. A life span that is so short, yet leaves its mark for millions of years.

During the 40-minute show, the spectator will be transported to another reality, a moving space, shaped by weightlessness, marine currents, depth pressure and elevation movements of rock folds on a cliff.
