Imminentes de Jann Gallois

In Imminentes, Jann Gallois brings together six dancers in an intense and hypnotic sextet, their bodies responding to each other like a wave. Inspired by feminine energy and the hope for a more peaceful world, the show invites us to look at our era differently.

With Imminentes, choreographer Jann Gallois imagines a collective dance performed by six women. On stage, their bodies gather, respond to each other, and support one another, as if carried by a single energy. Gestures propagate from one performer to the next, creating a ritual and forming a community. Thanks to the calm and profound strength that emerges from the movement, the choreography is capable of transforming our perception of the world. The piece is part of the artistic universe of Jann Gallois, a choreographer from the hip-hop scene, renowned for her highly physical writing that blends urban and contemporary dance. Since the creation of her company BurnOut, the now co-director of Agora, Cité internationale de la danse in Montpellier, has developed a precise and expressive gestural language that questions human nature and how individuals can act together. For her new creation, the artist draws on feminine energy. The dancers are powerful figures, like witches, goddesses, or nymphs. They embody a collective force capable of overcoming the violence and tensions of the present. At no point, however, is the show a militant manifesto. Instead, it offers a poetic reflection on the connections between beings. In the history of dance, this approach evokes certain ritual and communal forms, but also the legacy of urban dances where energy circulates among performers. In Jann Gallois's work, this circulation becomes a metaphor for humanity seeking harmony.
