Chiffonnade is a choreography whose basic material is fabric, the fabric that can be touched, crumpled, felt, folded or torn. The material in which we dress or disguise ourselves and which determines our appearance. Our image in the gaze of the other. The folds, creases, ripples of fabrics and cloths, the softness of costumes that you want to snuggle into. But Chiffonnade is also about emancipation, about the pupation of a child who grows ceaselessly to become an adult. On stage, a shell and planet-like sphere houses a figure and a multitude of figures. They are both dance partners and building material, guiding the expressive dance. To grow means to build up, to break open and to wander into the distance. New worlds emerge from scraps of fabric.
