FRACTALE AND -TRANSIRE-

Dance
Space Upstairs
By Compagnie Sui Generis (France)
FRACTALE (2009) & -transire- (2010)
FRACTALE begins with a simple touch. Three dancers, standing on stage in swimwear, add layer upon layer of simple touches to become a constantly moving sculpture. Set to music from Henry Purcell’s Dido and Aeneas, this mesmerising trio evokes a sense of spirituality from the complex patterns created by its simple structure.
In -transire-, two dancers and two vocalists share the stage. Both couples follow a score which takes them on intimate yet separate journeys, from harmonious beginnings to the heightened energy of a trance-like state. Breadth and clarity give way to a frantic breakdown of flow as the performers seem to lose themselves in various states of consciousness – before calm descends and a sense of wonder settles.
Emmanuelle Vo-Dinh is a French choreographer of Vietnamese heritage. She founded her company, Sui Generis, in 1998. Frequently collaborating across art forms, Vo-Dinh’s work draws on many influences including scientific and gender research, and is often subtle and thoughtful. Sui Generis has been based in Rennes since 2004.
