• Chanel Cheiban - El kamar bi zaher • (40 minutes)
El kamar bi zaher signifie «La lune qui fleurit», métaphore de l’univers intérieur et sacré, de la graine à la floraison. La chorégraphe-interprète Chanel Cheiban vous invite dans son salon familial, où naît un mouvement qui lui est propre en définissant une gestuelle qui navigue des traditions orientales au monde dans lequel elle vit aujourd’hui. Accompagnée de trois musicien·nes (percussions, oud et voix) qui reprennent des airs qui ont marqué les cœurs arabes, elle ne fait qu’un avec les gens qui l’entourent, avec ses ancêtres, jusqu’à ce que la danse devienne plus grande qu’elle et qu’elle entre en transe. Antidote à l’impuissance ressentie face à l’état du monde, l’art paraît tel un manifeste pour la vie.
El kamar bi zaher means “The Blooming Moon,” a metaphor for the artist’s inner and sacred universe, from seed to bloom. Choreographer and performer Chanel Cheiban invites the audience into her family living room to witness the birth of a dance that is unique to her, defining movement that navigates from oriental traditions to the world in which she lives today. Accompanied by three musicians (percussions, oud and vocals) playing melodies that have captured Arab people’s hearts, she becomes one with her ancestors and all those around her, letting dance consume and entrance her. An antidote to our feeling of powerlessness in the face of the state of the world, art appears as a manifesto for life.

• Mara Dupas - Olympia 2.0 • (30 minutes)
Explorant une gestuelle fluide et ondoyante, le solo Olympia 2.0 tire son nom du personnage de la servante noire représentée dans le célèbre tableau éponyme de Manet. Principalement exécutée de dos et avec une nudité partielle, la chorégraphie se concentre sur les cheveux et le dos. L’interprète Mara Dupas déjoue les attentes du public en choisissant ce qu’elle cache et ce qu’elle dévoile, remettant en question la domination des standards de beauté occidentaux et le rapport à son corps en tant que personne afrodescendante. Le décor intimiste d’Olympia 2.0 devient le lieu d’une (re)découverte, d’une tentative d’acceptation et de prise de parole.
Olympia 2.0 draws its name from the Black maid in Manet’s famous painting Olympia. Facing away from the audience and partially nude, the dancer lets her back and hair do all the talking. Mara Dupas defies the audience’s expectations, choosing what to show and what to conceal. Using fluid, undulating movements, the artist explores her relationship with her body, which bears witness to the clash between dominant Western beauty standards and her own African descent. The intimate setting allows her to (re)discover herself, learn acceptance, and speak out.
