How does Nicolas Patry rediscover his process of reactivating bodily memories in Danièle Desnoyers’ work Unfold?
The project Le corps qui cherche is an exploratory phase of doctoral student Mélissa Raymond‘s research-creation project Chorégraphier les restes: approche écosomatique du corps-archive. It is intended as a journey through the layers of dance memories. A way, writes Mélissa, “to affirm the resilience of dance in the bodily memory of dancers and to celebrate the collective aspect of dance through an ecosystemic vision of the creative process.”
