A body moving invisible objects, following little space paths. A fragmented but natural flow which starts from the hands and reaches the whole body. A body stuck by defined limits, a body searching for its place without finding it. The body becomes obstacle to itself, its parts don’t collaborate with each other, they offer passive resistance one by one. A body which does not find the right place, the comfort of being welcomed in the details of time and space, the relief of a relationship. A fragmented movement which becomes rhythm, looking for ways away from paths and rules, without really finding them.
