Mille Moules (밀물)
Mille Moules is a dance-theatre solo directed by Belgian choreographer Brandon Lagaert and performed by Korean dancer Seungkwan Yang.
It follows the story of a man who's able to move water to his will, making ripples dance across the surface of a lake with just a flick of his fingers. One day, while expanding his movement vocabulary, the water stops responding to his input. This marks the start of a journey.
Bringing together two separate elements, dance and Foley/sound design, this performance visualises the performer's movements in a way that goes beyond the technique. Using elements from both live performance and film, we strive to craft a style that brings not only different art-forms together as well as different cultures.
Walking with the weight of a wet wool coat.
Painting visions of futures not yet born, shimmering with the glow of possibilities.
Shadows merge with light like a mirror to humanity, blurring the lines between creation and creator.
Suspended in a waking dream while slowly drowning in the weightlessness of existence.
