Podcast 2021 — in English —

I invite you on a journey with breath as its starting point. I began this practice while working on a new piece entitled Au coeur nous préférons le diaphragme. How can the body and our imagination take us on a journey without even moving our bodies through space? This podcast takes you deep into unfamiliar places, with the flow of our breath as a dance that is constantly unfolding within us and beyond us. Let us imagine it as an infinite potential for exploration.

Originally conceived as a performance-workshop-lecture, the format was reimagined as a podcast to accommodate the health restrictions during the pandemic.

Dominique Martinoli, who received the 2019 Special Dance Award from the Swiss Federal Office of Culture, invited me to represent her at the 2020 Swiss Dance Days. I would like to thank her for giving me the opportunity. Many thanks also to Adaline for helping me with the translation, and to Pascale and Joanne for their feedback.
