Le Poids du lieu, a virtual choreography in three acts. Act II: Field

In an abandoned city, in the middle of a field left barren by the harvest, on a deserted railway track, travels an autumnal figure transformed by the places she inhabits. First, a playful sprite who wanders the frontier between asphalt and wasteland under a sparrowhawk’s gaze, she changes form as she enters a flat stretch of farmland, now a nomad.Like migrating birds, the exile must make this journey to come back to the self. The meandering ends in the forest. Now a witch, this strange figure peacefully returns to the sand, the river, the plants and the roots.With a calm wildness, amidst the rustling of raven wings, she is absorbed into the earth, finding solace at last.
