Our Animal Kingdom

Our Animal Kingdom is the result of a collective work, following the participatory project Animal Kingdom, and the reflection of fundamental themes: the relationship of man to nature, the individual within the collective, the connection between human beings, the relationship between humans and animals and their animals …

Launched in February 2020, Animal Kingdom invited each of us to explore the links between man and nature. In a world where individuals are more and more connected, it has become essential and stimulating for us to collectively invent and invest a new space.

Amateur and professional dancers with no age limit were invited to create a choreography and film themselves wondering: what are the animals within me?

172 videos were sent, 31 countries are represented. Our Animal Kingdom is the end result. 

For a year, Numeridanse worked in close collaboration with Akram Khan Company to develop this project, make it known to as many people as possible and share its values. Dance enthusiasts from all over the world have gone through this experience and shared their animal kingdom with us. Thank you very much to the participants for their generosity and their participation in the Animal Kingdom project.

Animal Kingdom is a Numeridanse and Akram Khan Company project, supported by the BNP Paribas Foundation.
