As part of the ChoreograpHER cycle.
Discover three proposals honouring a new generation of women choreographers.
Dive into an immersive, sensory experience with this two-hander inspired by water in all its forms, from glaciers to tears. The audience blends in with the stage in a living space where dance becomes waves, borne aloft by the music and songs of Gérald Kurdian and pre-Columbian water instruments. The dancers converse with the tides of the body and the memory of the ocean. An invitation to listen to the world in another manner.
