SOLOIL is a solo multi media piece created in collaboration with a composer artist.
My intention is to create ONE body Container revealing its constant transformation. Questioning the physical and psychological condition of human being; not only as a social representation or an artistic metaphor, but as a physical mass in mutation, the choreography expresses the tension of its own transformation and the several stages of self-consciousness through the movement.

SOLOIL is a 20 minutes multi media-choreographic piece created in collaboration with a live composer musician.
My intention is to create ONE body Container revealing its constant transformation. Questioning the physical and psychological condition of human being; not only as a social representation or an artistic metaphor, but as a physical mass in mutation, the choreography expresses the tension of its own transformation and the several stages of self-consciousness through the movement.
Soloil evokes the experience of our physical and temporal limitations that mark the human condition. As the piece reveals the relative perception of the body in its own density, in its architecture as a container in space, it simultaneously embodies the inability to answer the question, to emphasize his corporeal possibilities and raison d’être.
I explore the physical mass as a passive inertial entity, that evolutes as an active matter through movements, along with its natural ability to gravitate as a human body.
The condition of the isolate human body is emphases by the visual container space and its inability to escape it. I embody the space to refer the container, emphasizing visual scale or architecture…I often explore the threshold between real space and conceptual space.
Interested in these two moments of space like a movement between externality and interiority, a circulation between the outside and the thought.
