A sensorial and hypnotic journey, an almost anthropological observation… A landscape of flesh and nudity. The five dancers in “Sujets” are adorned in the clothing of nudity to dialogue closely with the light. Humanity is sent back to its foundations and its specimens explore the space they inhabit like the desire that moves them. 

Since 2010 and his debut as a choreographer, Sylvain Huc has made the body an infinite playground. The moment of performance is a ritual that is always renewed to throw together bodies that are both disheveled and delicate, wise and wild.

After graduating in History and Art History, completing an essay in political anthropology on “Female brutality, savagery and sexuality in ancient Greece”, his encounter with contemporary dance was sudden. He then joined the CDC Toulouse training programme in 2003. A few important encounters (Mark Tompkins, Gisèle Vienne and Lloyd Newson amongst others) would later fuel his artistic desires. After a career as a performer, he took over as director of the Divergences company in 2014. His first production, “Le Petit Chaperon Rouge” (Little Red Riding Hood), aimed at a young audience, was performed 250 times in France and in Europe. It laid the foundations of a peculiar choreographic approach focusing on the body, its states, its consistency as it closely interacts with sound and light.
