The mesmerizing solo by DD Dorvillier (San Juan, Puerto Rico, 1967) draws you into a dreamy state of mind. Are we seeing the same dance twice- or not? Dance is the archeologist, or an idol in the bone. subtly plays with repetition and memory. The work, with minimalist electronic compositions by Sébastien Roux, premiered in 2024 in New York.
Wearing jeans, white sneakers and a black T-shirt, Dorvillier plays with time and how we perceive the world, literally and figuratively digging into the layers of memory and gestures. Sounds that are created live in the first round - footsteps, breathing, cries - return as recordings in the second.
From the 1990s on, Dorvillier has made a name for herself in the world of dance with her innovative approach. Her work is often at the intersection of dance and visual art, integrating different media and technologies to explore perception and representation of the body. For instance, she recorded elements from cinema, sound installations, drawings and sculptures out of her fascination with language and those moments when it falls short. In this solo, she turns the everyday into something poetic.
