Located in the heart of Barcelona, the exhibition Beautés du Monde takes its title from Cartier's high jewellery collection, which celebrates the diversity of beauty. Three immersive videos were produced in order to highlight the major pieces of the collection. Each of them revisits and reinterprets the signature of the piece from which it is inspired, with an emphasis on the emotional power it contains.
The first video tells the story of a shape-shifting desert, where sand dunes, gently swaying in the wind, reveal the delicate curve of a woman's neck. The exquisite sound design complements this transformation, alternating between the murmur of the wind and the sigh of a woman.
The second video focuses on a drop of water and its journey. The aerial waltz of a little droplet is being followed and continues to form a dance with a multitude of other drops, before culminating in the formation of a diamond necklace shape.
The final video focuses on a fictional flower that hides a precious secret. As night falls, it closes in on itself and morphs into a bird, shifting to the rhythm of music made from recordings of rubbing petals and birdsongs transformed into musical instruments.
