Danseuse piétonne
[Pedestrian dancer]
In a work that moves between dance and cinema, Maroussia Vossen engages in dialogue with works of the directors Chris Marker and Jaques Dutoit in particular.
This work gives the audience the chance to enter the poetic universe of an artist for whom “there is only one step between walking and dancing” and who has always been motivated by her encounters with the other arts. In this work she will engage in dialogue with the works of the directors Chris Marker and Jaques Dutoit in particular.
In addition to the cat Djaleng from Paleodia, the soloist also brings along the pianist Mauro Coceano, with whom she improvises, on this journey, in a set designed by Michelle Knoblauch.
“Whatever life brings, I dance.” Maroussia Vossen

Meeting with literature
Collaboration between a choreographer and a writer can lead to the emergence of a large number of combinations. If sometimes the choreographer creates his dance around the work of an author, the writer can also choose dance as the subject of his text.
