yesterday Mathilde Monnier

the tension, the readiness to dance, what makes it visible? The bent foot, the open hand? small signs, read them all.


They say once is accident, twice tragedy, thrice comedy. By turning the individual and/or incidental gesture into a chorus (in and out of line, that's the game, the trembling of synchronism, in and out of focus) she plays with all of these registers. Well, not tragedy, here, since MM's dancers, like flowers, always come in odd numbers.
