Le Mythe d'Immorta

2022 | cooperate project | choreographer @ Centre des Arts Enghien-les-Bains

This performance is developed during the residence at Centre des Arts d’Enguien-les-Bains, in the framework of EUR ArTeC.
I choreograph based on the idea of seasons of nature. The dynamic of autumn, winter, and spring transform and integrate with my internal energy (“Qi”) which creates a hybrid space with no intelligent words but with gentle fluctuations between breath, environment, and bodily gestures.
This research-creation project explores the possibility of co-creation between virtual images and bodily gestures and further brings out the thematic problem: “Does a dancer dance alone?” I consider a solo dancer never dances alone; instead, each medium (space, image, body, and sound) is an organism that evolves, diversifies, and co-creates as soon as it exists. I create new bodily gestures with each media with the guidance of breathing and ‘Qi’, independently of my vision, from environmental media to visual media.

LE MYTHE D’IMMORTA :
A dive between two worlds, one robotic, the other organic. In a hybrid world, the mutations that take place create two paths, that of chaos and that of the Tao.
