YOU WON’T EVEN SEE THE EARTH
PERFORMANCE
You won’t even see the earth… What would a world look like where the sense of touch, walking, dancing, breathing, would have lost all contact with the essential natural elements? A world where the sensations of earth, sand, water, would be nothing more than a poetic memory? Bearers of this questioning between anguish and mystery, three beings discover an undefined place, between neutrality and hostility. Their only baggage: useless diving equipment. Their dance explores an unknown future, through the tensions of open spaces and closed spaces, over the places that host the performance. Their relationship to spaces summons architectural and spiritual symbolism, memories of ancient rituals and witnesses to the link between being and nature. The performance questions the place of humans in a universe that tends to disembodie them, through the digitization of their daily life and the multiplication of virtual processes. Danse / Chorégraphie : Gatien Brunel Bitsangou, Alexia Traore, Alexis Aymard Vividila Ngoma
