Mosaïco
> Dance
The Alliance Française of Calgary and La Cité des Rocheuses are proud to present MOSAÏCO, a powerful dance performance by Audrey Gaussiran.
MOSAÏCO is a multidisciplinary work that blends dance, music, and digital art to explore the theme of identity construction.
Performed by five dancers from diverse cultural backgrounds, the piece features a mixed and rhythmic gestural vocabulary. Their movements influence a highly reactive digital projection in the background: the appearance, transformation, or decomposition of a textured mosaic changes with the performers' gestures. The performance is punctuated with poetic texts, providing the audience with insight into the profound reflection that has fueled the choreographic process.
