託児
Something is moving in the dark, you try hard but can hardly make out what it is. Someone is sobbing? As the sound rising from the ground grows louder, a pair of women start appearing in the dim light, spinning round and round. Just that and nothing else, but the energy that flows out of their bodies links with the thoughts of the beholders, opening the door to the universe, to ancient times, to eternity. Gaining a steady presence at major European dance festivals such as Lyon and Montpelier, Nacera Belaza’s work, based on her research on her birthplace Algeria, its rituals and traditional dance techniques, carves out “the body hidden inside the body”. From the way she takes viewers to a far away time and space, Belaza seems like a second Kazuo Ohno. (Shigeto Nuki, Dance Critic)

プロフィール

Nacera Belaza

Born in Algeria, emigrated to France at the age of five. After having studied French literature, Nacera Belaza decided to become a full-time dancer and established the Nacera Belaza Company in 1989. Many of her works, including Le Cri, Les Sentinelles, Le Temps scellé and Le Trait, have been presented at France’s major dance festivals in Montpelier, Seine-St-Denis, Avignon and Lyon as well as abroad. She has been working on a project to build a dance platform bridging France and her native land. Belaza showed her work at the opening of the Dance Triennale Tokyo in 2012.
