A performative ode to taste, witness a magical encounter between the fluid soundscape of Tomoko Sauvage and the refined beverages of Benoît D'Onofrio, known as "Le Sobrelier".
Between water and infusion, breath and fermentation, we have brought together two artists at HiFlow, a hybrid space combining innovation, artistic creation and shared spaces, around a common language: liquid.
On the one hand, Tomoko Sauvage will intoxicate you with the sound of her ‘waterbowls’ – porcelain, water, hydrophones – letting their sound waves filter through. On the other hand, Benoît D'Onofrio, known as the soberlier, will present his elaborate non-alcoholic beverages made from infused, macerated or fermented plants, true nectars that invite you to enjoy them in a different way.
The performance will alternate between presentations and tastings of these finely composed beverages with refined musical gestures, opening up a space of sweetness where taste responds to sound. This event is a veritable bubble where every vibration, every aroma, becomes a sensory experience. A slow-paced, profound moment where we allow ourselves to be carried away by liquids that sing and those that are savoured.

In collaboration with HiFlow
Tomoko Sauvage is a French-Japanese composer and artist born in Yokohama and based in Paris. She invented a unique electro-aquatic instrument, the ‘waterbowls’, combining water, porcelain bowls and hydrophones. Through almost ritualistic gestures, she transforms drops, waves and bubbles into meditative soundscapes, exploring randomness, materiality and deep listening.
Benoît D'Onofrio, a former Parisian sommelier, has reinvented himself as a ‘soberlier’: a specialist in non-alcoholic but gourmet beverages. After struggling with his own toxic relationship with alcohol, he created ‘soberuvages’ – infusions, macerations and fermentations of plants – to offer refined pairings with dishes. He advocates for inclusive and sober sommelierism, without compromising on taste complexity.
