“Seasons lo longer exist” because the world is changing... What are we leaving behind? Y'a plus d'saisons evokes the world in which we live and questions the future in the face of the social and ecological conflicts caused by human beings. On stage, hip-hop, contemporary dance and acrobatics parade the seasons, all mixed up; the bodies of the six performers of the piece seek the balance between the sky and the earth.
This unstable ground, on which the choreographer Abderzak Houmi works, supports the often disruptive interactions between nature, time and humans. On stage, forceful and visual paintings from Vivaldi's The Four Seasons, which seem to melt into one, embrace this evocative dance.
At the head of the X-PRESS company, Houmi affirms that he found dance through hip-hop aesthetics. Far from codifications and limits, here he found energy and a starting point towards a space of freedom; in recent years, the choreographer has combined the vocabulary of hip-hop with contemporary dance, crossing different styles and artistic fields.
