ON STAGE PREMIERE
Urban distortions
Lille 3000, 17-18 November 2012
Kermesse Desorientale, November 2012, Lille 3000 (France)
Urban distortions takes an interest in the clash of territories, speeds and movements of different scales through the exploration and the decoding of three cities: Hong Kong, Mtwapa (Kenya) and Brussels.
We are trying out a deciphering of the city, a system of urban reading and writing, with humour and certain strangeness brought about as a result of decontextualisation.
The singer/musician Matthieu Ha develops a language without words with witch he ends up with his Haute Contre voice in a musical style close to minimal and baroque music.
Between performance and installation, the two sides of this dance project, with their diverging issues, meet at the perceptive distortions level.
