Pauline Berndsen Danse - Insectoïdes (20min)

In Insectoïdes, the quickness of insect legs and the curiosity of antennae come to life through fluid, disjointed, and jerky movements. Each gesture becomes an artistic expression of the subtle interactions and complex relationships found in the insect world, as well as a dive into their psyche and reflexes.

This duet, led by Pauline Gervais, a graduate of l’École supérieure de ballet du Québec, captures the essence of physical exploration through unique scenic universes. Founder of Pauline Berndsen Danse in 2018, she has brought her work to numerous festivals around the world. Centered on the fascinating world of insects, their creation Insectoïdes explores with grace and agility the diversity and unusual forms of these creatures, highlighting their complexity, duality, and mystery. This performance reveals the delicate nuances of interaction and relationship within the insect realm, celebrating our timeless fascination with this captivating world.
