Sylvain Émard Danse - Les Champs Magnétiques

After exploring the ritual aspect of dance and its power over consciousness, Sylvain Émard draws on the theories of physicist David Bohm to investigate the fascinating dynamics of the interpenetration and interdependence of bodies. Every movement is both source and continuity; every gesture has unexpected effects. Émard keenly observes the capacity of entities, even at a distance, to intertwine, and their constant modulation. How does the resonance of bodies operate within a defined space while remaining connected to the outside world? How is the history of the world inescapably inscribed in bodies? These are just some of the challenges that enrich the choreographer’s creative ground for a brand new experience set to the music of Poirier, an in-depth exploration of the body’s magnetic connections.
