Snapshots #2 - Léa Lansade
Intégrale
With Snapshots, choreographers Christian and François Ben Aïm propose a series of solos performed by women. This work brings into dialogue the springs of intimacy and the hectic forces of the outside world. It unfolds as a fragmented study of what makes up an identity, seen as a moving matter.
Each solo is an opportunity to bring out a new energy, underground, unknown, a reserved part. This study borrows from haiku, the poetry of the moment. Here, through movement and gesture, the choreographers seek to capture this emotion, immediate and fleeting, in the manner of a photographer capturing the decisive moment.
Short pieces, light forms for the stage as well as in situ, they can be presented indoors or outdoors. These solos can live autonomously, alone, or be associated with each other, in a configuration adapted to each occasion and space.
Eventually, this series of short female portraits will constitute a mosaic, a kaleidoscope with multiple entries and combinations.
> The second solo, Snapshots #2 Léa Lansade, is a nocturnal crossing between dream and vigil on the Metamorphoses nocturnes, first quartet of Ligeti, performed by the Quartet Voce. This expressive, extravagant piece by Ligeti conjures up a dreamlike universe, sliding from tragedy to irony with subtlety. It is through the prism of dreams and the unconscious that this Snapshot is spun, to summon in a tone sometimes serious, sometimes burlesque: bewitchment, regression, freedom and evanescence!
