Dance performance in a forest
Dark Blue Night is a “Temporary Queer and Magical Feminist Zone”!
Inspired by a fantasized aesthetic of a feminist freak show and science-fiction feminism, some creatures appear from the depths of the forest. These queer people come to deliver, by dancing, a part of their non-binary lives.
Give these individualities this capacity to change, to shatter the well-established borders, of reality and fiction, of nature and culture, of the feminine and the masculine, to constantly reconfigure the limits of the interior and the outside, the living and the artefact, in order to learn how to kill a gendered and normalized, sticky identity, stemming from patriarchy.
“BSN” summons hybrid figures who “squat” the forest and make it their temporary and utopian place of life, to operate their trans-formation (//transcendence).
BSN convenes a community of queer figures: they will appear... disappear... and set up gestures and ways of relating that will blur the boundaries between the state of dream and wakefulness, between fiction and reality. From these bodies emerges a space of deviance, performance and resistance. We will be these bodies.
BLUE DARK NIGHT asks questions:
how to reinvent your own body? What can a body do in the capacity to reinvent itself?
How to get out of the narrow framework of one's identity, of one's gender...?
"I AM A PURE PRODUCT OF THIS CENTURY"- création 2015
Lise Casazza : CHOREOGRAPHY AND PERFORMANCE
I started off as a performer in different Dance companies, street dance essentially: Trace(s) en Poudre, Migrateurs Transatlantiques, Lieux Publics…….
These experiences revealed my love of direct contact and true proximity with the audience.
In parallel, I dedicated my personal research in dancing, by exploring the powerful connection that links the emotional to the physical state. From this form of dance, engaged in intense physicality, obsessions emerge, and little by little, take shape of “ subjects of choice”.
The gender perspective, mankind’s animal side….are part of these subjects. A form of dance which takes shape in the heart of the human and its concerns
Using dance, actions, body conditions,
together with sound material - music and text
I am a pure product of this century, draws the portrait of an unkempt
and unconventional woman.
We see her struggle in order to regain her strength as a living being.
She presents her humanity, a subtle mixture of violence, humor and tenderness.
She has come a long way, she has lost her home, she has begun a crazy journey….
how long has she been running?
She cannot feel herself anymore, a woman’s body that has been given away, sold, played around with, lost, kneaded, rummaged, desired, thrown away, recaptured and darned….
So, she runs, she needs to find herself again, to get a hold of her life, her body, her identity
This is about territory, the one of the skin, of the muscle, of the bone that belongs only to oneself.
Taking possession and regaining control of one’s body.
