Danses Buissonnières

Five young artists defend their own solo creations on stage. Their styles, themes, and ways of approaching movement couldn’t be more diverse, but they come together in the clarity of their points of view, a striking testament to their self-affirmation. The materiality of light, the intermingling of slam and break, the transcendental potential of the spiral, the empowerment of showgirls, and the articulation of a bedside lamp alternately fuel choreographic inspiration. These 5 works were selected among 35 following an audition by a jury composed of artists Alexandre Morin, Karen Fennell, Nasim Lootij, Lucy M. May, and Mukoma-K. “J. Style” Nshinga.
