PRESENCE
audiovisual dance performance2022PRESENCE takes the form of a performance where movement, sound and visual space evolve through a series of interconnected chapters.
Created in collaboration with dance artist Ariane Levasseur, the work develops the relationship between gesture and sound, where stillness, fluid motion and subtle shifts of the body are linked to distinct sounds.
Through this dialogue between movement and sound, the piece reflects a personal journey of transformation and the constant state of change. PRESENCE becomes an exploration of the ideal we carry within ourselves, a vision of who we might become, made perceptible through the body in motion.
Equipped with interactive gloves, the performer triggers sounds that punctuate and accompany the choreography. Visuals are controlled live, following the progression of each chapters.
