Météore(s) is a piece co-written by two choreographers for three hiphop dancers. On bare stages, in non-dedicated spaces, they enter and wander. Their presence is sidereal.
In the beginning, they hibernate in the icy void. The three dancers embody rock-bodies and move in silence. Gradually, they cross the space, creating ephemeral constellations.
Soon the constellations yield to the pull of gravity. Their entry into the atmosphere brings flashes to light, in arms, torsos and hair. They lose orbit, give themselves up to near-falls, come close to the ground and then escape again towards the sky. They play with gravity, defying the forecasts of collisions. Celestial bodies, they float. Soon they pant, catching their breath.
A footwork dance is born. A dance of the feet, fast, meteoric: impacts are born and hammer the floor, again and again. They are by turns down-to-earth and heads in the clouds, their hair floating in weightlessness. They become traces, trajectories, twists and spirals. They make the strikes on the floor, the growls in the throats and the breaths speak to one another. Unisons shift and become polyphonies. They become clamours, sparks and impacts.
