Mille lieues - in situ

In their duo work, Marion Baeriswyl and D.C.P question the way we inhabit the world and relate to the Earth. With Mille lieues, they suggest new ways of engaging with, learning from, and communicating with the environments on which we are interdependent. Inspired by the behaviour of the lichen, an algae fungus that acts in symbiosis with the elements on which it spreads, their new creation is born at the crossroads of several textures, materials, and disciplines that intertwine, dialogue, collide, and cohabit. Paying particular attention to slowness, detail, and precision, Marion Baeriswyl’s dance seems at one with the elements of nature, while D.C.P’s deep layers of music envelop, develop, and in turn contaminate us. It’s a timeless moment in the face of climate change, an invitation to be more attentive to what lies around us.
