Nacera Belaza's dance is more of an inner journey than a pictorial illustration. Abstract and carnal, powerful and diaphanous, organic and open to the infinite, she starts from the void to project herself into the unknown, in search of a breath or a pulse that is as free as it is renewed and vitalized. Her choreographic work encourages a lively dialogue between Algerian and European cultures, between spirituality and image, movement and imagination.

For this new piece, she drew inspiration from audiovisual archives of traditional rituals. Rather than retaining their forms, she captures a state, a tension, a way of being in the world made up of inner peace, of letting go, of receiving the infinite within oneself - and animated by a pulsating rhythm that links the soul to space and time.

Carried by a soundtrack that blends tradition and modernity to the point of confusion, this piece for five dancers explores once again the body's capacity for transformation through imagination, through the power of consciousness and the spirit, and calls for a new kind of serenity.
