Les Contes d'Hoffmann
Here are a virtual stage model and costume sketches made for an international directing competition. The competition aimed at selecting the best artistic concept for opera “Les Contes d’Hoffmann”, to be staged as a new production in the 2022 / 2023 Season.
"Les Contes D'Hoffmann", or The Tales of Hoffmann is an opéra fantastique by Jacques Offenbach. The staging concept was created with Lithuanian stage director Karina Novikova and has the topics of a burned out artist, split personalities, layers of a personality and idealized/demonized women at its core.
The design brings us to the world of constant slipping from reality to fantasy and is inspired by the poetic images in the writings of Sigmund Freud.
