Jacopo Benassi was invited to engage with the band LARSEN, with whom he has collaborated for several years, creating an experimental and immersive experience entirely contained within this single evening

Benassi's artistic intervention was an orchestra of light: like the sound areas of an opera, the artist followed the rhythm of the band in a crescendo of random lighting that involved the space as well as the audience.
