Vanessa Jousseaume,an artist and set designer, explores the intimate connection between the performing arts and our everyday spaces, whether urban or rural. Through her projects, she seeks to shift our perspective on public spaces and their uses, encouraging us to see architecture in a new light, interpret landscapes more deeply, and infuse our journeys with poetry.

Rooted in her rural surroundings, Vanessa Jousseaume tells the story of her region through her creations. She weaves sensitive narratives that connect the landscapes with their inhabitants, reveals the wonders of nature in her unique, nature-inspired collections, intertwines life stories with the power of the wild, and raises awareness about the loss of life.

A train station by day and by night.

A stream of people on the move. Departures, arrivals, transfers.

One by one, the listener enters, through the medium of a voice, into the inner world of different travelers. For a fleeting moment, we catch a glimpse of thoughts in motion. Each thought finds an extension in that of a neighbor, finding a sort of echo there.

The game consists of letting oneself be carried away by these intimate musings, these intertwined fragments of life that, like a circle, eventually come full circle.

“There are some fragments that don’t fit into narrative logic. […]

Bugs, basically. […]

The problem is… they resist.

They keep reappearing, here, or somewhere else.”

Gaëtan Gromer

 

Les Archives du Vent (Archives of the wind) is a geolocated and interactive sound fiction that transforms public spaces into territories of exploration.

In a perfectly calibrated world, a mysterious wind carries voices that cling to walls, trees, and sidewalks. They reveal fragments of life that sketch out ordinary gestures, as useless as they are necessary.

With Les Archives du Vent, the path is unclear; it navigates between attempts and renunciations. You choose everything: your path, the order in which you listen, what you keep or let go, how long it lasts.

Each walk creates a different archive.

The meaning is not revealed immediately; it is constructed as you walk. And what cannot be resolved is nevertheless inhabited.

La Citadelle de Marseille

“Fort Saint-Nicolas, 6 November 1939

Imagine, my dear Edith, that I am not in such bad company here.

There aren’t only thieves behind these walls, far from it – in fact, I wonder if in these times of war, they imprison any criminals at all – on the contrary, they’re all at the front! You’ll never guess who’s imprisoned here for the same reasons as me? Jean Giono! The author of Le Grand Troupeau, that masterpiece”

Valérie Manteau

 

Citadelle Cast is a series of four geolocated sound fictions that invite you to delve into the layers of history at Fort Saint-Nicolas. In each episode, a character who once “lived” in the fort speaks in the language of their era and reveals a facet of this place with a thousand and one lives.

You pace back and forth listening to ‘Wage war on war’ with Henri, a teacher, trade unionist and pacifist, imprisoned in the Fort after being denounced by his neighbours for publicly criticising the general mobilisation and the return of war in September 1939. Henri manages to circumvent censorship and write to his wife to tell her what goes on behind the scenes at the Fort.

You can also discover ‘Through the main gate’ and ‘Down the hole’ departing from the Haut-Fort, or enjoy a stroll through the gardens of the Citadel to discover ‘The Isle of Dogs’.

“Red alert.

The alarm sounded throughout the underground facility. We found ourselves locked in from the inside, as is standard procedure in such cases: doors locked and waiting for instructions. It’s important to note that since we got the new computers down there, it gets hot quickly despite the air conditioning. But there must have been a revolt, perhaps a new war. We didn’t know yet, but it must have been serious, given the General’s call and the red alert.”

In this episode, we are escorted to the exit by Francine, a switchboard operator at the military telephone exchange located in the basement of the Fort in the 1970s. Francine finishes her 8-hour shift, happy to see the light of day again, but due to her professional training, she is still ‘on duty’ – on the lookout for the slightest incident at the Fort.

A sound gallry of characters to discover at the Citadelle of Marseille

Citadelle Cast is a project comprising four geolocated sound fictions that invite you to delve into the layers of history at Fort Saint-Nicolas, moving from one era to another and from one narrative voice to another, each expressing itself according to the codes of its time.

Three new sound fictions to discover while following the guard tour of the Haut-Fort at the Citadel

 

On the first tour, discover ‘Through the main gate’, where we are at the current restoration site, accompanied by Tigran. He has been employed on a work integration scheme for several months and shares his pride in the work accomplished and his personal journey since arriving in Marseille, ‘in social media mode’.

On the second tour, with ‘Down the hole’, we are escorted to the exit by Francine, a switchboard operator at the military telephone exchange located in the basement of the Fort in the 1970s. Francine finishes her shift, happy to see the light of day again, but due to her professional training, she is always ‘on duty’ – on the lookout for the slightest incident at the Fort.

We take one last stroll while listening to ‘Wage war at war’ with Henri, a teacher, trade unionist and pacifist, imprisoned in the Fort after being denounced by his neighbours for publicly criticising the general mobilisation and the return of war in September 1939. Henri manages to circumvent censorship and write to his wife to tell her what goes on behind the scenes at the Fort.

Sound fictions available from 20 September 2025 on the dedicated app – GOH

“Driven by this desire to return to my roots, I have strangely always felt an emptiness, an absence, that of the sea and the horizon, at once full of life and mystery.
On this day, in your company, dear mother, and yours, dear listener, I revisit the history of this island that is Bonnevoie, through its buried but still palpable memories.”
Fabio Godinho
 
This podcast-like creation offers a unique interactive experience, placing you directly in the places that inspired the story, thanks to geolocation.

Empty Nest invites you to wander through the backstreets of the Bonnevoie district, listening to the story of a mother and son, she who was born elsewhere, he who grew up here. A singular yet universal story, as it carries with it the stories and testimonies collected from local residents. A story that seems simple, almost commonplace, yet reveals the complexities of exile and the hopes that guide every step towards the unknown.

Like a child going through the stages of life, you are invited to walk through the streets, between happiness and disillusionment, alongside those who have undertaken a journey towards a new land of welcome. Those who, one day, have left the nest to make way for the unknown, for the possibility of new beginnings. Empty Nest evokes the ambivalent feeling of emptiness that is then created, filled with memories and promises, tinged with both nostalgia and satisfaction, where each memory resonates like the distant song of a lullaby.

City center of Reims
Starting point : in front of Saint-Ex

“As long as we’re here, you have to see the cathedral. And I’d like to see the state it’s in. It was terrible what I saw. I can hardly believe it. Early this afternoon, the fire engulfed the scaffolding that encircled the full height of the north tower façade.
We were in the process of restoring it. There’s always work going on at the cathedral…”

Amélie Lucas-Gary

Une conversation is a geolocated soundwalk that invites you to follow two women as they wander around the city of Reims.

Hélène and Lucie meet up after a long time apart. Hélène, who has lived in Reims all her life, has lost an object, and to find it she invites her friend to retrace the route they took the day before. Lucie discovers the city through Hélène’s memories.

They walk through the streets, and as they go, in between lines, we wonder: what has she really lost? What are they looking for? Who is Hélène? Elements escape logic and chronology, and little by little, in the dialogue, the past comes up. From one street to the next, through the different buildings and eras, the discussion operates by telescoping and breaking up: the strict framework of the present explodes.

Through past events and their present echoes, through the bodies of Hélène and Lucie and their presence in the city, the condition of women and their contradictions are also revealed.

A project under development with the support of Saint-Ex, Culture Numérique.

Amélie Lucas-Gary was born in Arcachon in 1982 and lives in Paris. After studying History and Cinema at the Sorbonne, Amélie Lucas-Gary graduated from the National School of Photography in Arles in 2009. Since then, her practice has evolved, and she has published three novels: Grotte (2014), published by Christophe Lucquin Éditeur, Vierge (2017) and Hic (2020), published by Éditions du Seuil. The latter was written during a writing residency in New Zealand. All Amélie Lucas-Gary’s novels deal with the question of creation: that of the universe in Hic, the author’s genesis in Vierge, the beginnings of art history in Grotte. She regularly works with artists on catalogs, exhibitions and performances. Today, she uses photography, sculpture and writing in turn or in conjunction, proposing a form that resonates with the artist’s work and shifts the way we look at the works. In this way, her literary work is strongly influenced by her preoccupations with the plastic arts, which she uses to serve her appetite for romance and adventure.

Around the Citadelle
Marseille
When I was a kid, I dreamt of being a lighthouse guardian, and as things have turned out, I wasn’t too far off. When people ask what I do, I say I’m the Guardian of the Fort.

You might think my imagination is far too vivid, and you wouldn’t be wrong. The thing is, I have to imagine things, given that I’m on my own all day. It’s a pretty solitary line of work, but with the echoes of so many stories in my head, I’ve got plenty to keep my mind busy.

Valérie Manteau,

The opening of Fort Saint-Nicolas to the public in 2024, even if only partially, is a highly anticipated event for the residents of the city of Marseille. A heavy gate will finally open on one of Marseille’s most visible, best-identified buildings, most steeped in history – but also one of its most mysterious.

Valérie Manteau invites you to explore the sensitive shadowy areas that remain in the interstices of Marseille’s great heroic history, which was written stone by stone in the fort. A walk among the ghosts that plunges you into the mysteries of the Citadelle and sheds light on a little-known episode shrouded in fantasy and suspicion: the occupation of the Citadelle by hundreds of animals, under the aegis of the Army Health and Veterinary Service from 1978 to 2011.

By entrusting its evocation to a civilian who is simply a dog walker, this sound fiction, embodied at a human level, will accompany your journey and try to lift the veil on the taboos protected by the walls that stand in the heart of the city.
