INCORPORER | KIDS
In INCORPORER (accompanied solo #1), the dancer is an explorer, uncovering a dance where movement arises from observation and exploring different states of matter and the two fluids necessary for life: air and water. As the piece progresses, and under the gaze of a second person who accompanies the dancer, punctuating his actions with clepsydras conceived by visual artist Anne Mortiaux, the dancer explores a series of playful physical experiences that unfold in space, like a physician in the laboratory.
What can we do with the air that we breathe or the water we drink? What happens in our bodies or in the objects? Can we blow into a balloon until it pops? What happens if we release the balloon against something or someone? Can we inhale or exhale air through water? How can we create waves inside a balloon? And what about a storm? To incorporate air, water, their sounds, the space; to create one body out of many; to intimately unite one matter with another into an entirely new element, bring them in as parts of a whole, defined, demarcated. Lend body and resonance to the actions and sounds of a wandering that unfolds in close proximity to the action, in the intimate gesture of one whose attention is fully absorbed, like a child, by the meticulous observation of his explorations. Through the dance that emerges with each new experience, the dancer weaves a dialogue with ordinary and simple objects and discovers the possibilities of his body and the resistance of the materials, while gradually making the inaudible audible and unfolding a mysterious universe in which the "smallest" becomes "very big".
