Le ray au soleil

aXolot is an international neotenic collective specialized in interdisciplinary performance art with the recorder and contemporary music as its core.

aXolot, ambystoma recodarum, is a neotenic collective that prefers to remain in a larval form, gaining no evolutionary advantage from growing into a reptilian state. It’s also known as a water puppet, or interdisciplinary trespasser.The species originates from volcanic lakes and, in mythology, represents the dark side of Venus.

aXolot is extensively used in scientific research due to its ability to completely regenerate body parts. aXolot breathes one endless breath due to its 3 hair-like gills that gives aXolot its futuristic look. A concept that has inspired and breathed life into a literal triangularity, formed by recorder soloists Kim-José Bode (DE/NL), Sarah Jeffery (UK) and Dodo Kis (HU).
