ANNE &
SAMUEL
I gladly accepted Samuel’s lovely invitation to create a dance
duo for him and Anne Plamondon.
I suggested that we continue the research I started in 2005 with
bODY_rEMIX/gOLDBERG_vARIATIONS. At that point, I had yet to
create a man-woman duo in which dancers perform with crutches.
I also wanted to involve Kinbaku, the Japanese art of bondage.
Anne willingly entered into the spirit of the game and we so met
the wonderful Isabelle Hanikamu. In Anne & Samuel there’s also a
nod at SOFT VIRTUOSITY…, a piece I created in 2015.
