Partager le vide

Two female performers stand facing each other, each playing an electric guitar, bathed in blue-hued light.

Resonant bodies

Sharing the void. Letting it resonate, amplify, and fill with echoes and traces; putting it into resonance, articulating its frequencies. Between Sophia Dinkel and Marie Goudot–two dancers with different experiences and paths–a personal language has emerged: a way of relating, to each other and to space, that unfolds in the interstices; that diffracts, contracts, and constructs gateways of solitude alongside moments of junction, sedimentation, or vertigo. With the help of two electric guitars, their bodies attune and engage in the work. As a vehicle for their states, the guitar becomes a projection surface–alternately an imaginary support, a soundscape, and a poetic tool for vibratory expansion.

Starting from the blank page of the stage, Sophia Dinkel and Marie Goudot compose their movements as a counterpoint to absence–a response to invisibilization. Through a flow and ebb, they assert the score of a persistent vibratory presence. Their gestures harmonize with the layers of strings they manipulate, giving shape to the stories and questions that drive them–touching on the status of authorship and performer, the female body, and the relationship between dance and memory. A moving concert and sonic choreography, where the slightest gesture brings forth voices, rhythms, and refrains, Partager le vide interweaves the visual, physical, and mental spaces.
