DÉCORPS D’INTÉRIEUR
 
Shortlisted 2018-2019
A person has a shadow, but can a shadow have a person? How many 
 people coexist inside one person? How to give life to the different 
 sides of ourselves? How can we describe this inner struggle? And if it 
 was a dance? 
 
 Two inseparable bodies: In this piece, we create a metaphorical space 
 that suggests that two bodies are one person. It is a physical reflection 
 on our internal negotiations and duality. The interaction between these 
 sometimes contradictory sides is translated into movement, into 
 manipulation, into dance, into fight. 
 
 Primarily, the emphasis is on symbiosis, on synchronism. However, this 
 union naturally evolves towards a desynchronization. The distance 
 grows.  
 
 There is a rupture. A confrontation. Thus, we move into  duality,  all the 
 while remaining inseparable. We play with the brutality of the conflicts as 
 well as with the subtlety and the tenderness of the cooperation. Raising 
 issues of power; exploring the mutual support and cooperation; 
 illustrating a sense of continuous transformation led equally by the two 
 forces. 
 
 Aesthetically, we create a poetic universe based on the simplicity of 
 gesture and action, where harmonic moments, as well as conflicts, can 
 be born. The story is constantly fluctuating between  unity,  distance, 
 rupture, and interdependence…
