Place des Anges 2017

The aerial choreography of Place des Anges may be the first in performative history to paint constellations of white feathers in the night sky, and with such acrobatic ease, it appeared to be the most natural thing to do for two consecutive evenings in downtown Montreal . These feathery formations clearly revealed the spectacular in the spectacle, and like tactile fireworks or warm snow, came cascading into the audience in waves of angelic wonder. I can imagine a child looking up wishing upon every feather that these angels were real. For the adults in the crowd, that beauty exists in the dreams we may secretly cherish. This was a gift to our city and as a photographer, one of the most spectacular shows I have ever witnessed. Bravo!
