For many years I have had a very close relationship with dance. I have experienced it with my own body and I have also done a lot of films about this subject. The Urban_butoh series consists of short pieces of video dance with important butoh dancers of around the world. https://vimeo.com/user3053584/videos

ANIS OUAZZANI (FRANCE)
For the last ten years I’m passionate about improvisation and questioning the limits of freedom on philosophical, psychological or physical level. That quest led me to many experiences, might it be traveling, teaching in high school or art.
When I met dance I felt home and saw a potent way of embodying all these questions, of learning about myself and my relation and place in the world.
I want performing as a transformation act, unleashing all vibrant and unconscious forces in presence to give birth to something new that challenges patterns of perception and thoughts.This year I am dedicating to creation, construction of new pedagogic tools and performing in various contexts using movement, composition, music, poetry and voice. I am also working as choreographer and dancer in this project www.merversible.com and preparing the Moonwalk!

NADIA LOSONSKY (USA)
Nadia is a performer and improviser who grew up at the intersection of hot, happy Texas suburbia and the sprawling agriculture fields of southeastern France. She uses her body and gaze to write stories.
While based in Seattle, Washington (2011-2016), Nadia’s repeated collaborations with generative artists Paige Barnes, Marlo Martin and KT Niehoff engendered a deep appreciation for time and process in art-making. With Barnes she dove into ritual, animal abstraction, and performative improvisational scores. The resulting works were presented at the Hedreen Gallery, Northwest Film Forum and Orcas Island Film Festival. In working with Martin across five seasons, she experienced badassery through group unison, athletic partnering and the buzzing presence of ten powerful women together on stage. With Niehoff, she was reminded that her eyes are round and challenged to play with the ecstasy of taffy.
Nadia has learned the most about how to live and listen and be in the world from her contemporary dance practice. She has learned the second most from five years spent crafting, cooking, dancing, singing and lining up with preschoolers in Seattle.
Currently, Nadia is thrilled to be discovering the connection of her body to the earth through recent experiences in physical labor, farming, eco-construction and Kalaripayattu. She is interested in reconciling her outdoor-loving, farmer self with her performer self.
LAETITIA CAMPS (FRANCE)
Dance makes me alive ; Poetry gives me fuel ; Elements make me feel the world ; To be a woman give me a place somewhere.
My own dance is based on improvisation, feelings, exploration and playing, with limits and contact. I also use with yoga, qi gong, contemporary & African dance, as well as singing, drawing or writing. By poetry I mean the magic of the world, facts that I receive like presents from the universe. I nourrish this supra-world, inspired by other artists like universal thoughts.
« Medicine Dance » made me encounter the power, Life Art Process opened the possibles and freedom. Exploring outside has always been a source of richness. Elements give my body infinite ways to express itself.
To be a woman has opened me the way to consciousness and ancestral knowledge. To become Moonmother and to be initiated into Wombblessing and cares, canalizing energy of sacred feminine, has given me the possibility to come back to my roots and impetus, to connect to the woman condition with love. Moon is my schedule.
Autodidact, I work on collective creations, research and performances. As awakener of creativity, I lead laboratories in order to approach collective and individual body mentoring.
LAURENCE MERSEGAIR (FRANCE)
La danse a toujours été très présente dans ma vie,comme un "chemin initiatique".
J'ai commencé a creer pour un public dans des collectifs avec la danse africaine suite à un voyage de 2 ans en Afrique puis la danse afro-contemporaine puis contemporaine avec "technique Limon" puis techniques d improvisation (Julyen hamilton..)
Puis la danse contact et techniques de kinesiologie (feldenkrais,BMC,Fasciatherapie).
La danse butoh m'a toujours "fasciné" mais je ne m' y suis reellement mise que ces 4 dernières années avec beaucoup de "devotion".
Elle me relie à ce qu il y-a de plus essentiel, de plus organique. Elle me rend totalement "transparente". Un appel aux forces de la vie, à l'ame. De la vie à la mort, des tenèbres à la lumière dans une transformation, transmutation permanente.
Danser dans la nature me rapproche d'avantage des "ces forces"...les forces de l'invisible...Elle transgresse toutes mes limites.
