On November 21, 2026, ARTEVENTIA will take part in the Pohang International Light & Fire Festival in South Korea, alongside Hanwha and Hibikiya. Facing Yeongildae Beach, the French house will present LOVE BEYOND THE STARS, a creation that will bring its artistic universe into dialogue with those of the Korean and Japanese teams. <\/strong><\/p>\n

In Pohang, fire is part of the landscape. In this city on Korea\u2019s east coast, known for its steel industry, it also becomes a material for creation. For the duration of the festival, light transforms the waterfront into an open stage, where residents and visitors gather to discover pyrotechnic signatures from several countries. <\/p>\n

Held from November 19 to 21, 2026, this new edition will welcome ARTEVENTIA for the major international showcase on Saturday evening. The French house will share the bill with Hanwha for South Korea and Hibikiya for Japan. <\/p>\n

Three signatures to discover<\/h2>\n

The presence of these three houses will give the public an opportunity to discover different ways of composing with fire. The choice of shapes, the place of colour, the rhythm of the sequences, and the way the sky is inhabited each carry an intention. Behind the effects, sensibilities, journeys, and cultures of spectacle come into view. <\/p>\n

For ARTEVENTIA, taking part in this gathering is both an opportunity to present its work and a moment of exchange with other creators. On the same stage, each proposal invites us to look differently at a material they all share, yet each sets in motion in their own way. <\/p>\n

This diversity is what makes major international gatherings so compelling: the public can appreciate the singularity of a creative voice, move from one universe to another, and discover the breadth of pyrotechnics\u2019 artistic possibilities.<\/p>\n

LOVE BEYOND THE STARS, love as the horizon<\/h2>\n

For the Pohang Festival, ARTEVENTIA has composed LOVE BEYOND THE STARS \u2014 Love Beyond the Stars<\/strong>. A title that opens up an imagination where intimacy meets immensity: that of a feeling capable of crossing distances and finding, in the sky, a space equal to it. <\/p>\n

Facing Yeongildae\u2019s maritime horizon, this creation will invite the public into a sensitive interlude, carried by the evocative power of fire. Within this encounter between France, Japan, and South Korea, ARTEVENTIA will thus share a proposal whose title resonates with the spirit of the event: letting emotion travel beyond borders. <\/p>\n

At Yeongildae, composing with the horizon<\/h2>\n

Yeongildae\u2019s maritime setting will give this evening its depth and scale. Facing the beach, the sky becomes a space of composition whose balances must be considered: focusing the gaze, unfolding an image, allowing a breath, then opening a new perspective. <\/p>\n

These choices are central to ARTEVENTIA\u2019s approach. A show is built in the relationships between sequences, in the duration of an appearance as much as in the force of a change of pace. A suspended image can hold all attention before a broader movement transforms the perception of space. <\/p>\n

In Pohang, this exploration will meet a new landscape and a new audience. This is also what makes each international journey singular: a creative writing takes on another dimension when it is inscribed in a place and discovered through other eyes. <\/p>\n

Sharing a French vision of spectacle<\/h2>\n

For ARTEVENTIA, this participation will be an opportunity to share an approach in which pyrotechnics are part of an overall staging vision. Shapes, rhythms, and contrasts help build a progression, with its moments of momentum, suspension, and surprise. <\/p>\n

The ambition is to give the spectator a thread to follow, an experience to move through. This attention to composition accompanies the house\u2019s work on French stages as well as abroad. <\/p>\n

Alongside Hanwha and Hibikiya, ARTEVENTIA will present its sensibility within a programme bringing together France, Japan, and South Korea. A meeting that reminds us how the art of fire can travel while preserving the personality of those who create it. <\/p>\n

See you on November 21 in Pohang<\/h2>\n

For three days, the festival will make light a point of gathering in the city. The international show on November 21 will be one of its highlights, before the finale delivered by Hanwha. <\/p>\n

For the ARTEVENTIA teams, the horizon is now that of this evening: the moment when preparation gives way to the show, when the first lights appear above the water, and when the public discovers LOVE BEYOND THE STARS.<\/p>\n
