    Between dance and figure, the choreography breaks down into a series of disconnected moments, dreamlike sequences that together build a surrealist universe. Each scene, like a fragment of a dream, unfolds according to its own inner logic, where the body and the environment are distorted. Each gesture is a small fiction that builds and dissolves, like a game of deception and revelation: between being and seeming, the body shatters, recomposes, and transforms.

    Going into the woods at night is a bit like getting lost. The senses are heightened, the ways of orientation change.

Between sounds of frogs and wind, stories and whispers.
