DD Dorvillier / human future dance corps
The Chocolate Factory
Oct. 17-19
"Returning to the US after several years, Dorvillier engages with her rich history as part of the downtown New York dance and performance scene throughout the 90s and 2000s. A French transplant since 2010, Dorvillier’s latest solo—a collaboration with sound artist Sébastien Roux, lighting designer Carina Premer, and dance researcher Mathieu Bouvier — is structured by four consecutive dance scores, which emerged from a dream after dance practices and research on a handful of little-known archeological sites in France. Dorvillier dances, digging through the series of scores, and upon reaching the end, begins again. The sound recorded from her first round of dances returns to accompany the second – a sonic ghost conjugating the present with the immediate past, as she moves towards the future," notes the release.
