Apesanteur I Weightlessness
Piece for 4 dancers
Estelle Danvers - Choreographer
Laëtitia Antonin - Assistant
With this project, choreographer Estelle Danvers explores our relationship to the world:
How does the world weigh on us? Can we refuse or accept the weight of the world on us? To what extent can we free ourselves from gravity to choose lightness?
And conversely, what imprint do we leave on our world, what is our impact? Can we have an impact on this world around us, by ourselves or through our relationships with others?
4 dancers, alternately solo and duo, crisscross their worlds, search and grope, try, branch off and propose a path, each one their own. Each piece in this project is a path of reflection, a way of apprehending the world and its difficulties. No path thus opened is the absolute truth, each road is a truth.
Estelle Danvers has chosen to work in the form of solos and duets, in order to open up as many avenues of reflection for the spectator, free to identify with one or the other in their search for their path – or with none of them.
Estelle also wanted to work with her most loyal dancers because the bonds woven by their very rich collaboration over several years allow a real search for the intimate, the very personal questioning that she seeks for this project.
After Mozart's danced Requiem, where she confronted 7 dancers with the universal question of life, Estelle Danvers continues her exploration of each person's personal questioning, in a more intimate form, where the dancers lay themselves bare through their dance and their interpretation.
