Passage


2015

In 2014, in our piece Soi-même comme un autre, I worked with Carine Pache, a tetraplegic dancer-interpreter from the Dansehabile Company in Geneva. The day before the premiere, I revealed to Marcel Bugiel my desire to continue this collaboration by making little video clips on the ideas of handicap and integration in society. I just had a simple image in my mind of Carine and I discussing together while going through a busy street in Geneva: Carine on her wheelchair and myself sitting on a normal chair yet trying to follow her pace while bound to be sited. «Passage? » problematizes this image, leaving it up to the viewer to judge it.
