For the choreographer, the intention of a gesture precedes its shown version: « Form is content coming to the surface ». His choreographies give birth to both concrete and intangible spaces, crossed by organic flows. A tense and vigilant smoothness, coming from afar but also conjugated in the present tense. As a visual artist of movement, entirely partnering with light, he continues his sensual and incisive journey from one work to the next. « Aujourd’hui, sauvage » brings eight performers on stage, in Sallahdyn Khatir’s superb set design and with Marek Havlicek and Benjamin Colin’s musical backup. They all accepted Henri Michaux’s invitation to embody the roars and the racket, « the never quenched thirst », the intuitions guiding movement at the eve of its impulse.
