Description
A sound, visual, choreographic, inclusive performance for all audiences.
The company La SECOUSSE draws inspiration from the urban and rural landscapes it encounters along its journeys. The sound atmospheres inhabiting these spaces—now transformed into sources of artistic inspiration—metamorphose into movements, rhythms, animated images, paintings, and music. Soundscapes, a visual and physical experience, takes shape within an immersive and vibrant scenography, embodying the vast soundscapes of Marseille (FR) & Basel (CH).
Performer-dancer Cilio Minella intertwines his practice with the respective research of drummer Jakob Warmenbol, performer Marine Comte, and composer Matthieu Perrin, in order to bring their relationship to sound into action through multiple choreographic games. These playful actions in movement, supported by original and singular musical compositions, are accompanied by danced sign language interventions. Soundscapes is a search for unusual, non-verbal forms of communication.
This performance seeks to refine our sensory relationships with the vibrational qualities of sound, striving to “make it visible” through physical actions and a shifting scenography. The choreographed interventions bring body, objects, space, and the sonic environment into resonance, creating a universe rich with varied sensations.
