FRAGILE SEMANTICS
Based on “A Tiny Cut in a Velvet Dress I+II ” –
FRAGILE semantics, based on “A Tiny Cut in a Velvet Dress” is a piece about love, longing, memory, life, death and rebirth – about existence and non-existence. A velvet dress that embodies all our desires, our fears, our questions about life, the sensuality of our encounters and also the pain of separation has been given a small, almost imperceptible tear, or has always had one – like a wound and like a keyhole. Traces of the soul become the blue thread of a non-linear reflection. Spotlights on stages of a life, light and shadow draw the topography of a soul, its traces become landscapes, its memories metaphors of a journey of the destruction of balance, of the self, of nature, of the planet.

… companions of a new era
This project is inspired by the dramatic power and language of Virginie Despentes: “The Life of Vernon Subutex” and the irritating but deeply affecting images in the film version of her “Baise Moi” text, which suck in and cling to the viewer.
How is it possible to create a comparatively subtle power of images in motion in and through dance?

L’Exile des Manatées
Memories fall into the present and together form a timeless dimension, an echo chamber between performer, space and projection, in which they seem to be constantly at work. -The place of experience is an “old house” into which the protagonist has perhaps just moved, or from which she is just saying goodbye after a long time.
