"Régine Chopinot's radical rethinking of her work, which questions the choreographer's twenty-five years of experience and her assurances, is something of a kick in the gut. "Walking without ideas", "without beginning or end", "everything must be abandoned incipiently", "overactive without producing anything", are just some of the intentions launched in order to flush out the true engines and tools of creation that reside in our memory.A state of alertness, openness, availability, confrontation with the unknown: a leap into the void to bounce back elsewhere."
