Figures (video - 2016)
Characters observed -all at once familiar and strange…gestures, games, interrogations, and drifts seen between parallel realities … distorted figures in a nature that’s denaturalized on an electro- rock soundtrack softly hallucinatory.

Pastoral
Pastoral is a group created in 2010 by Christophe Bailleau (musician and visual artist based in Huy, who produced several albums with Fenêtre Records, Carte Postale Records, Annexia, Le cri de la harpe…) and Philippe Franck (a.k.a. Paradise Now). Mix of post-folk, post-pop, sound landscapes and experimental music, the discography of Pastoral is open, imaginative, and not deprived of humour.
