*Company Introduction
On this level, Eun-Me Ahn that France discovered in 2013 and 2014 thanks to Festival Paris Quartier d’Eté, has found new, unexpected and exciting ways. This comes first from her own itinerary, marked as much by the learning and exploration of shamanic traditions as by the many years spent in New York or a profound friendship with the missed Pina Bausch (who invited her many times in Wuppertal). Korean and cosmopolitan, figure of the avant-garde, choreographer of the official opening ceremony of the FIFA World Cup in Daegu (2002) and artist invited to the most important international festivals, she knows how to improve the beauties of contrast and mix polka dots, stripes and flowers, how to play with the most pop colors before switching to the most solemn austerity, how to play with the most subtle shades of androgyny, or use slowness to make trance rhythm burst…
*Performance Detail
Let me change your name...
With this title, like an invitation, South-Korean choreographer Eun-Me Ahn questions identity and the place of individuals in our modern society by playing with repetition and contrasts. Between darkness and flashy lights, black and white and bright-colored costumes, between a shamanist ritual and fashion show, gravity and humor, the movement imposes itself, repetitively and sometimes hypnotically, up to the point of going into a trance. In a frantic rhythm, the nine performers – including Eun-Me Ahn herself – exchange costumes as they change skin, as they change gender. They dance until forgetting themselves in the movement to create together one unique body. They fade, blend into the group but yet, they are here with their personality and they state it out loud and clear.
Maybe their name has changed along the way… Maybe not…
