Le bal des VivantEs is a hectic search on and under the skin..
Physically, anatomically, as a being of flesh and bone, the skin is both the huge organ that contains me, And this limit that defines me.
It is also "the screen", what the other sees, "identifies" with me, with my person: the mask.
Finally, it is this interface, this limit (yet) permeable between the inside and the outside.
A sensitive layer in perpetual motion that re-presents me. Through it, I feel and I give to see.
It is an extreme sensory organ, the largest we have. Incessantly, it sends us information and we transmit through it an unsuspected variety of data, conscious or not
I chose the skin as a reflection, a transmitter, a factor of identity and above all a metaphor for the boundary between the self and the Other, a "mark" of identity.
The performance "Le bal des Vivantes" is the fruit of 3 years of research and collaboration with various artists:
Julie Azoulay, singer-improviser (Les Baux de Pce, France)
