Dromos 1 & 2 ( 2006 / 07)

Dromos 1 & 2 : two solos constructed over a period of two years, 2006 and 2007. One forms part of the continuity of the other.
The staging of Dromos 1, a pictorial object, concentrates on a closed space, a cocoon in which a being evolves, a consenting – if unconscious – prisoner of its environment. It thus exposes its body to external view without control over its image which, filtered by a vertical membrane, becomes double, since it is also processed digitally by the external screening of a video. The membrane, like a moving palimpsest, thus comprises two visions of the body: the first, sensual one from which the second, abstract one emanates, like two complementary poles which are transcended by the light at intervals.
In Dromos 2, the body is liberated from its cocoon. It departs from its virtual performance by breaking through the cloth to invade the stage. Constructed this time on a horizontal plane, Dromos 2 offers the newly formed being a far more extensive, less protected space, enabling it to become aware of its vulnerability and of being watched.
