THE ESSENTIAL ACT OF CREATION
They throw themselves, contort themselves, lift themselves, lock themselves up, remember, project. Women above all. From west to east, from all generations, languages and cultures, they meet for the first time in November in Geneva. For this second edition of the festival, entitled "Jeter son corps dans la bataille" ("Throwing your body into the battle"), I want to create a four-day artistic event as powerful as it is subtle. The injunction of the festival's title led to the theme of the "day after", the time between battles. My temptation to showcase so many artists and premieres becomes an attempt to bypass the well-established art market, and create a singular creative platform for performance art.
