A dance work featuring a diptique composed of a solo and
a trio. The world première was on 21st October 2005
at the Maison de la musique de Nanterre.
Compared with the company's more recent works, this more personal opus saw
Lionel Hoche create an introspective piece for which he was the solo artist,
accompanied by a musicien, Benoît Toïgo, who joined the company
in 2005. Renaud Bez
imagined the video and Lucy Carter created the light design. The trio that
followed attempted to evoke the necessity of belonging to a community and used
three objects imagined by Philippe Favier. Three autonomous dancers weave their
way to interaction and community, man's vital need to interact with others.
I composed an original
work for Praxis.
