In this choreography, the imagination is phonic. The makers of this project have been led by a methodology and sensitivity which put hearing, the perception of energy and the movement of attention above the sense of sight. The dancer’s body negotiates with the language with which it shares the space. Speech moves, travels and guides the spectators’ attention towards numerous relations between sound and movement. The spoken word takes on a performative agency on par with the dance.
