Performers and audiences will witness the creation of a spectacular 15-metre structure accompanied by live music from the Highland bagpipe.
Jordi Galí starts with breathing and the soul as the essential key to existence, to create a 15-metre structure, and positioning the performers in a circle. Building a circular space and suspended time that draws performers, spectators, passers-by, men, women and children together in a kind of collective breathing exercise. The construction will be accompanied by live music from bagpiper, composer and improviser Erwan Keravec who will be playing the Great Highland bagpipe.
Jordi Galí has worked as a dancer with Wim Vandekeybus, Anne Teresa De Keersmaeker and Maguy Marin, among others. He began working on his own projects, and set up the Arrangement Provisoire Company in 2007. Since 2014 he has shared the role of artistic director with choreographer Vania Vaneau. Their work is centred on exploring the relationship between body and materials, gesture and object, and developed with public space in mind. As constructions that are both monumental and ephemeral, their performances open up a singular temporality in urban and natural landscapes.
