DANCE ME

Dance has always been my transgressive engine.

Movement, feets, hands, body and music are here a subject for drawing, painting, recording. 

Those pleasures together became DANCE ME.

Cou de pied”, the neck of the foot. It does not mean kick or toe.

Aristotle said that the head of the plants was at the root, because it is through the head that we eat .....

My body creates space and the rhythm of time, silence is not mute as there are no sudden gestures without blows, nor hands in the air without having been fallen, nor a single movement without rest.

Or is it time that outlines my toes? Because I don't abandon you. And when I dismember and stretch  or curl and bend and turn around or when I step on you when I land on you or when I leave you, it is always because you and I, Oh Earth, we are a chord.
