"Coeurs" is a 23-minute 3D film created by Valentin Ranger. This film is a sensitive reflection on how our relationships shape our place in the world, and and an exploration of the role of care for others as a new aesthetic of future beauty—a beauty that is shared and experienced together. Hybrid and fantastical characters are projected onto the vast glass façade of Le Visionnaire (designed by Moatti-Rivière), the historic headquarters of L'Oréal, which is exceptionally open to the public for this occasion.

The projection is also a poetic interpretation of the dialogue between the body's surface and its internal systems. The encounters, movements, and dances between the film's characters become a visual translation of the microbiome's movements and the biological exchanges that connect organisms to one another.

Inès Chérifi's musical performance is a deconstruction of a love song, a dialogue between electric violin, voice, and machines. It invites the audience to inhabit this sonic environment where love manifests as a shared vibration circulating between bodies, surfaces, and the invisible architectures of sound.
