The Raw Power
In an era dominated by technological advancement and artificial intelligence, Nawal Aït Benalla’s new creation, Ce qui nous traverse, presents a powerful return to human connection through movement.
Five dancers with distinct physiques explore the raw power of the human body as a universal language within an intimate setting, engaging in metronomic, repetitive movements that evolve into a controlled, trance-like state.
Through elaborate choreography and striking contrasts – sudden accelerations, decelerations, and moments of near stillness – Benalla questions our relationship with our bodies and physical connection in shared space. The piece aims to highlight our corporeal forms as powerful instruments, capable of connecting us all and transcending divisions of class, culture, and education.
