MEDIATHEK

Temps de chien (2005), a piece for six dancers, explores the uncertainties, uneasiness and desires provoked by an increasingly unsettled environment.

While daily life conspires to keep us off balance, we are distracted with tales of easy bliss. Temps de chien features video in the set design and is grounded in a rigorous language of movement. The choreography underscores the fundamental humanism and sensuality of bodies that are standing witness to such transformations. The bodies alternate between defiance and insouciance, finally leaping into a comfort zone where there is neither memory nor a future. But, with rainfall always comes a resurgence of hope...
