LES NUAGES

Les Nuages is a dance performance exploring loneliness and the yearning for connection. It investigates how our perceptions—
formed through lived experience and imagined realities—shape the way we navigate isolation and togetherness. Central to the work are inflatable, smoke- and helium-filled humanoid props that act as haunting presences, simultaneously companions and barriers. They externalize the fragility of human boundaries, showing how our projections onto others can distort or disrupt relationships. These ghost-like bodies embody memory, imagined others, and the unseen forces that shape intimacy.

 

We all carry the weight of the blue sky above us

and all these clouds,

all these dreams
