As part of the Vent bleu exhibition, experience a celestial performance by Mykalle Bielinski. Like a breath from the ether, Mykalle’s crystalline voice blends electronic music with sacred chants. Her lyrics, drawing from various musical traditions, take the audience on a journey through different cultures, much like the wind as it sweeps across the land.
Venti, the Italian word for “winds,” offers a meditative, musical, and relational experience at the heart of the installation Vent bleu, centered on the breaths that flow through us. Derived from the Greek pneuma (breath, wind) and the Latin spiritus (spirit, inner life, soul), the word “spirituality” unites body and cosmos. Breathing itself is wind: the air we breathe has already been breathed by others and will continue to travel throughout the world. The performance invites the audience to feel this invisible force circulating between beings, until it becomes a voice, a word, a presence, and potentially, something greater than oneself.
As a singer-songwriter, Mykalle Bielinski has been working for over a decade at the intersection of music and the performing arts. She is known for her ritualized performances: the 360° multimedia opera Gloria (2015), the funeral choir of Mythe (2018), and the ecological ritual Warm up (2021). In 2024, she released her first solo album, Da pacem, which she performed on several stages, notably at the Festival international de jazz de Montréal (2025), the Santa Teresa Festival (2026), and the Festif de Baie Saint-Paul (2026). Mykalle has also composed music for some fifty projects in theater, dance, film, and radio. In 2021, she published Mythe, précédé de Gloria, with Éditions du Passage.
The Foundation wishes to thank the Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec and Giverny Capital for their financial support to the project.
