UBIQUITY
Emmanuelle Raynaut & Isabelle Jonniaux
AREP cie & In Vivo 5.12
In the 21st century, the mask changes sides. It can also look like a VR headset. UBIQUITY explores this new carnival of identities and presences. Five dancer-characters invite the audience, to the rhythm of electronic pulses, to take part in a collective ceremony. The gateway is virtual reality, the driving force is dance, and the culmination is celebration. UBIQUITY embraces the idea of a utopian technology, imagined as an instrument of transgression, connection, and joy.
Emmanuelle Raynaut & Isabelle Jonniaux
AREP cie & In Vivo 5.12
Visual artist, choreographer, and director, Emmanuelle Raynaut is the artistic director of AREP cie. She develops a transdisciplinary practice combining visual, choreographic, and digital arts. She explores memory, mutations, women’s voices, and questions our modes of relating through sensitive, often immersive formats that bring together amateur and professional bodies.
Isabelle Jonniaux is a director, dramaturg, and performer. She creates participatory, in situ, and promenade works, often in dialogue with local territories through her company In Vivo 5.12, based in Brussels.
