Screening of 'The Sense of Tuning' by Bêkà & Lemoine and intro by the directors

Experience Studio Mumbai architect Bijoy Jain's unique vision in 'The Sense of Tuning,' integrating natural materials with urban fabric, introduced by directors Ila Bêka and Louise Lemoine.

Still from 'The Sense of Tuning' by Ila Bêka and Louise Lemoine

The director and artist duo Ila Bêka (born 1967) and Louise Lemoine (born 1981) explore new narratives and forms of representation in relation to modern architecture and urban environments. The New York Times has called them "cult figures in the European architecture world" and they are widely recognised for their unique contributions to our contemporary understanding of architecture and the perception of the city. Presentation by the directors. The introduction lasts approx. 10 min. and will be in English.

The event is made possible thanks to the generous support from the Institut Francais.

'The Sense of Tuning'

DIRECTORS: Ila Bêka, Louise Lemoine    

Modern Mumbai prefers glass and glamour, but architect Bijoy Jain from Studio Mumbai chooses a different approach. He embraces materials such as basalt, bamboo, concrete, and soil to create simple yet elegant homes around courtyards and water basins that perceives in harmony with their tropical surroundings. The Sense of Tuning captures a day-long encounter between the director duo Bêka & Lemoine and Jain - twelve hours of intense wandering that takes us deep into the vital energies flowing through the streets of Mumbai.

ENTRANCE FEE: 105 kr. / 75 kr. for members of CAFx Community and Cinemateket
