IN RESIDENCY: LUDOVIC VIAL WITH EVA LAMBILLON
The second resident of the Looming programme, transdisciplinary artist Ludovic Vial continues his collaborative work with dancer and choreographer Eva Lambillon.
Trained in visual art at HEAD and recently graduated from La Manufacture in stage direction, Ludovic Vial works on devices that integrate text and movement with space.
The result of an initial research project presented during his diploma at La Manufacture, this new collaboration with Eva Lambillon integrates different levels of questioning relating to belonging and the individual and constitutes an ongoing conversation between the two artists.
"From poetic textual material questioning the notions of identity and origin, we are going to look for their translations in movement and see what remains of the word. How does this ever-changing weave pass through different tableaux and draw a performance that seeks to emancipate itself in the writing of the present? What dialogue with the music and the space can take place? - Ludovic Vial
A performance on 16 December at 8pm will close their two-week residency.
