femme physique

A site-specific choreographic performance for two performers, a local female choir and a swimming pool.

The piece explores the relationship between body and water from a female perspective. The work takes place in a swimming pool (or optionally at other spaces of leisure) where bodies gather and share a moment of tranquility. An ode to the physical body; wrinkles, cellulite, goosebumps, soft and hard lines, thin and thick skin.

How are bodies felt, seen and performed in these spaces?

SHAKE YOUR SKIN
SHAKE YOUR HIPS
SHAKE YOUR BREASTS

Running towards the pool. NO RUNNING. Goosebumps. Why is there sand on the pavement? Holding my stomach/breasts. Can not wait to get into the 39°C water. Ahhh release. Safe…

-Oh hi! How are you doin’?!

The body is beautiful. Enjoy it! Dive in! Dance on the bank! Let yourself float...
