Live Painting and Harmonic Music:
A Unique Collaboration with the Levallois Orchestra
On a memorable evening in Levallois, I had the incredible opportunity to combine live painting with harmonic music performed by the prestigious “Orchestre de Levallois”. This special event was set against the backdrop of Mussorgsky’s powerful compositions, creating a unique and immersive experience for the audience. For 30 minutes, as the music resonated through the hall, I painted live on a massive canvas measuring “2 meters by 10 meters”, creating a dynamic composition filled with mechanical elements. The live audience watched in real-time as the piece came to life, the fusion of sound and art unfolding before their eyes. This performance wasn’t just a creative expression; it also carried a deeper purpose. The concert was held in support of the association “Autistes Sans Frontières 92”, an organization dedicated to helping children with autism and their families. I am incredibly honored to have been a part of this event, where art, music, and a good cause came together harmoniously. This evening was a testament to the power of collaboration, and I am grateful to have been part of such an inspiring initiative. Art and music have the potential to transcend boundaries, and in this case, they did just that, creating a moment of connection for a meaningful cause.
