Cie Pseudonymo – France

“Squid”
Squid opens like a dreamlike bubble, a world outside the world, where the blurred boundaries between fascination and domination are tested. The company claims a theatre of illusion that nourishes its explorations in the heart of the anguish and chimeras of humanity.

“Sous ma peau” /sfu.ma.to/
The sfu-ma-to is a pictorial technique of misty blur invented in the Renaissance. Music, words, bodies and materials offer a singular journey, where looking becomes a sensory experience, an optical walk through mirages in a museum.
