Icare

Icare raconte l’être danse, l’être emprisonné dans sa pesanteur terrestre et sa condition impérieuse, l’homme dans son animalité qu’il chérit et rejette, l’homme oiseau,l’homme rapace, l’homme sirène, l’homme clown, l’homme acrobate.

Icare (Icarus) recounts the dance being, the being trapped in its earthly gravity and its imperative condition, man in his animality that he cherishes and rejects, the bird man – obviously this comes to mind – the hawk man, the merman, the clown man, the acrobat man, faced with risk, faced with the void, faced with dress, faced with his history and, finally, confronted with wisdom. 

If the show leaves us with a sense of fullness, it is because there is in Icare a freedom that is unknown on Earth. The absolute search for freedom. The freedom of the soul, we could say. 

The dancer as a link between earth and sky. Elevation by the spirit, weighting by the body as we are tethered to the ground, irremediably.

A multitude of emotions that the skin perspires.

Over and beyond the archaic myth, dance attempts to escape the pettiness of everyday life to enter the abyss of our aspirations.
