Swiss Dance Days: Open / Closed

© Gregory Batardon

By Pierre Piton

Open/Closed guides the visitor through an intimate research, exposing the body inside-out and outside-in. To the sound of organic textures, Pierre’s vulnerable and multi-layered dances are releasing a powerful sensitivity. Originating from a single vocal sample created by Simone Aubert, the trembling voice intensifies into the soundtrack of a fiercely vulnerable and personal revolution. The boundaries of the self fade away as an invitation to become Open/Closed to our
surroundings.
