Olympiade is about time — its nature and its manifestations. How can we enrich our perception of time by moving beyond a typically Western approach? How can we broaden our horizons to gain a different understanding of spacetime and its implications? Somewhere between a battlefield and a playground, an athletics track provides the setting for these questions. With its lanes separated by white lines that evoke the irrefutable singularity of every being who walks it, the track is animated by bodies that, in dancing, travel through both time and space.
Through choreography conceived by Antonio De Rosa and Mattia Russo, creators of KOR’SIA, the Ballet de l’Opéra Grand Avignon explores the possibility of a new relationship with time: past and present follow one another without either dimension prevailing. Dance composes trajectories without beginning or end, where individual and collective identities merge and overlap.
