Yonder Woman
/ Creation on October 19th, 2010, at festival Karavel (Bron), duration 25mn.
Experiment for two superhero women
Voluntarily exposing themselves to the public gaze, two women enter their assigned space of experimentation. Willing to show a heroic image to the audience, they comply with the performance requirements they assume them to be cherishing. Wearing suit jackets and headspin hats, they imagine a virtual labyrinth filled with obstacles and targets, along which they make sporadic progress, in a game of overtakings, contacts and tensions. Immersed in the oppressive atmosphere of expectation, the dancers’ bodies reveal and transform the inner tensions related to the logics of contemporary living. Yonder: at an indicated distance.
“This way of dissociating limbs to assemble them again upside down is like danced Picasso. […] a new architecture, filgree as well as joyful, mischievous as well as surgical. Another breakdance is possible!” Thomas Hahn – Danser – 02 / 2011
