Subtile Puissance - Points de vue sur le mouvement - #1
23 Jan – 24 Jan 2027
About this event
The fourth part of this research, Subtile puissance invites us to explore its two fundamental qualities: subtlety and power. Our center of gravity, and a space for circulation and transformation, the pelvis anchors us to the ground as much as it propels us through space. Both foundation and engine, it is a deep source of creativity and energy.
After undergoing three operations on my uterus, I felt the need to embark on a personal quest to understand what was happening in my body. I explored different fields of knowledge and practice: Chinese medicine, acupuncture, physiotherapy, psychotherapy, kinesiology, studies of femininity, feminine energy and the sacred feminine, family constellations, and magic. Along the way, I gathered knowledge, went through experiences, and met many people who guided, treated, and supported me. A fourth operation was scheduled. But the day before the procedure, I discovered I was pregnant. This event profoundly changed my path and opened up a new space for questions and wonder. Today, I feel the need to share the paths I have explored, the discoveries, and the mysteries surrounding the creative forces within our bodies, and particularly our pelvis.
By exploring its bone structure and the tissues and fluids that make it up, we will seek to awaken its different dimensions. The practice will alternate between somatic and technical explorations, individual, paired, and group experiences, improvisations, and choreographed compositions. We will play with weight, gravity, impulses, and space in a dynamic, sensitive, and energetic dance.
How can we perceive the most subtle movements? How can we let this sensitivity become strength, momentum, and amplitude?
Organized by: SOMME Collective
SOMME Collective is a platform for contemporary creation and research focused on the body and choreographic practices. Its associate choreographers, Eva Baudry and Francisca Crisóstomo López, bring their work together in the fields of performance creation and the sharing of experiences.
