The French dancer and choreographer Brice Leroux is a composer to the very core. Like Quantum-Quintet (Kunstenfestivaldesarts 2006), his Solo#2 exudes an intense musicality. With mathematical precision, he creates a magical world at whose heart lies the wealth of visual composition. Brice Leroux turns the spectator into a discoverer.
He opens your eyes by “undernourishing” your field of view. When you enter the installation, the silhouette of a dancer’s body takes shape in the darkness. The body rotates and lets itself be viewed from every possible angle, yet you still remain uncertain about what you are really seeing. Is it an illusion or not? The outlines gradually dissolve in the darkness and all that can be seen is the structure of the installation. In Solo#2, Brice Leroux absorbs the spectator’s senses, outside of time. He keeps you in suspense until the last moment, until the ticking of the hundred metronomes of Ligeti’s Poème symphonique has faded away.
