Our Fire Installations are experiences to be lived.
As beautiful as the photos are, they cannot replace the sounds, scents and sensations which we perceive in the poetic universe of our fiery scenographies.
Flame being our base "colour", we manipulate its surprising power of deep peace.
This is how we can bring together hundreds and thousands of people in public spaces, and offer them, beyond the aesthetic transformation, accents of calm, tender moments and an expansive
atmosphere.
We implement poetically the primary purpose of street arts : something we can enjoy together, without distinguishing between age, culture, or points of view.
To be together, without fear, simply, as humans.
Now more than ever, we are driven by this.

Fire Installation is an original project written for the setting which is offered to us.
One-off creation, short lived, in a particular place,
a lived-in setting, visual, musical, with sounds and sensations,
for public places whether urban or countryside: town centers, parks, streets, gardens...
Starting at dusk
by a diverse team
for thousands of people of all ages.

"When I first met the members of the Carabosse Company I thought I was looking at deep miners. Their faces and hands were black and before everything, they gave the impression of working as a group as they were putting up structures which bit by covered the streets and open spaces...
That evening, I saw how the written show could be transformed into magic. The relationship between man and fire seemed promethean : fire, the element carrying at the same time danger and fascination. In fact, we are just afraid of it as was need it for warmth or cooking. It was this that gave me the impression of going right back to the beginnings of humanity.
Great care was taken with this flames. There was never anything ill considered or not thought out. The soothing side of flames took over, to swing the balance of the evening into the realms of pure poetry."
Gabriel Diss from Carnet de Route Citadelles de Feu, éditions Serpenoise
Each Installation de Feu is a one-off creation, written for a particular place.
So, as each artistic project is different, as each crew is different :
each crew is exactly depending of the project,
and made wiht professionnals from street art.
Depending of the scenography, we can be a crew of 3 people, or 8 people, or 25 people, or sometimes 60 people to put on the flames !
