JARDIN DE SCULPTURES ÉPHÉMÈRES by Marie Chouinard, with Music by Louis Dufort 
This paper focuses on a musical and choreographical analysis of the piece JARDIN DE SCULPTURES ÉPHÉMÈRES (2020) by Marie Chouinard, which was composed over a series of musical excerpts from composer Louis Dufort’s album, Into the Forest. After thoughts on the special circumstances during which the creation of JARDIN became a video streaming during the COVID-19 pandemic, an analysis of the work’s musical content is presented. The various elements of the choreography that define its structure are described through the succession of 84 ephemeral sculptures. First, the sculptures are classified in three main categories (pointy, round, and balanced) which divides JARDIN into seven sections. Moments of simultaneity, antagonistic positions, and arrangements of lines and angles emphasize key moments of the work, often corresponding with the musical material. Finally, the article concludes with a reflection on the analogies and isomorphisms between dance and music in this piece.
