Dans les plis du paysage

Balls viewed as projectiles, but also as a driver of thought in motion. “Dans les plis du paysage” further explores our relationship with objects, which powerfully reveal something about the figures and the relationships between them.

Seven jugglers seize the balls, which seem to open  possibilities to be realised and unknowns ripe for invention. A search  for the individual amid trajectories and momenta, in the folds of the landscape…

The conclusion of a d’un triptych that began with Pan-Pot ou modérément chantant about the material of juggling, Dans les plis du paysage  explores relationships as a research object. Appearances, vanishings,  shifts/lags, repetitions and fragmentations are the motifs that make up a  score of gestures, just like one constructs a piece of landscape, music  or dance; or like one divides up space and time. Between two  trajectories, a singular relationship is born, and a delicate fabric  appears – “in the folds of the landscape”. 
The collective is  expanded here to seven jugglers, accompanied by a musician on drums.  They play artfully with their number, like as many possibilities to be  invented.
