Experience a unique live aerial performance and projection

Enjoy the premiere of this multi-part event at the Turbine Hall at Tate Modern. Visual artist Noémie Goudal and director Maëlle Poésy invite you to experience a multi-media installation of photo, video and performance. ANIMA asks viewers to reflect on the ‘sensation of time’ and the effects of climate change.

Taking place over 60 minutes, the piece features three large-scale moving image projections created by Goudal. This is alongside a unique live performance by aerial artist, choreographer and dancer Chloé Moglia, whose practice is based on suspension and weightlessness. The music for the piece will be scored by DJ Chloé Thévenin.

The performance is based on Goudal’s work Post Atlantica, which takes the audience on a journey through Earth’s landscapes. It’s inspired by scientist James Lovelock’s ‘Gaia’ theory which says all living organisms and their environment on Earth are interconnected.

The event has moved indoors due to rain. Doors open at 21.00 for a 21.30 start. We are unable to admit latecomers.

Noémie Goudal

Noémie Goudal (b. 1984) is an artist whose visual practice involves the construction of ambitiously staged, illusionistic installations within the landscape, documented using film, photography and performances. Goudal’s interventions are under pinned by rigorous research examining the intersection of ecology and anthropology, interrogating the limitations of theoretical conceptions of the natural world. Goudal graduated from the Royal College of Art, London (2010) and lives and works in Paris.

Maëlle Poésy

Maëlle Poésy (b. 1984) is a director, author and actress, and the director of Théâtre Dijon Bourgogne since September 2021. She studied Drama at Sorbonne Nouvelle, dance with the choregraphers Hofesh Shechter, Damien Jalet and Koen Augustijnen, and trained as an actress at École Supérieure d’Art Dramatique du TNS.

Chloé Moglia

Chloé Moglia (1978 ) is a performer whose practice is based on her unique research of suspension, integrating her martial arts practice in her journey as an artist. A proponent of both embodied thought and bodily sensibility, she endeavours to integrate into her work focus and acuity by combining physical practice, thought and sensitivity.

Chloé Thévenin

DJ, producer and composer Chloé Thévenin also works in the studio in order to create different worlds and climates. She has produced four albums or electronic self-portraits, and composes soundtracks for films, soundscapes for France Culture, and music for choreographies. She also works on immersive experiences combining sound and visual creation.

Ticketing

Access companions go free, please select this option when booking if you require a companion to attend.

The bench area in the first rows (facing the screen) is reserved for wheelchair users and companions. If you have any access requirements, please let us know.

Comfort and relaxed viewing

Music will be played throughout the performance. Chloé is well known for her electronic music playground and has created the soundtrack for ANIMA, which involves, for part of the performance, some heavy beats.

The performance duration will be 55 minutes without interval. We offer ear defenders, easy access to the performance space and a quiet zone into which to withdraw for a calm moment.

The Corner will be open until late evening where toilets will be available for attendees to use.

Arrivals, departures and moving around

The performance takes place in the Turbine Hall, which is step-free.

The nearest taxi rank for drop-off and booked pick-up is in Holland Street (postcode SE1 9JF). The rank only operates until normal gallery closing time so after the event the nearest place to hail a taxi is nearby in Southwark Street.
