Hominal

In this performance, Marie-Caroline Hominal, dressed in shimmering jeans, moves through a fantastical world dominated by a pink set designed by her brother, artist David Hominal. The stage features large panels with changing textures, fleeting tones, and repetitive patterns, onto which the dancer projects her shadow, stories, dreams, and doubts. Marie-Caroline plays with repetition, collage, and formal gestures, creating a sense of distance, self-deprecation, and reflection. This is the third time Marie-Caroline has invited an artist to collaborate with her, and for this piece, she works alongside her brother to merge their artistic practices, exploring the intersection of their respective aesthetic universes.

In French.
