Jann Gallois : Imminentes

With Imminentes, choreographer Jann Gallois imagines a collective dance performed by six women. On stage, bodies gather, respond to and support one another, as if carried by the same energy. Gestures spread from one performer to another, creating a ritual and forming a community. Thanks to the calm and profound strength that emerges from movement, the choreography is capable of transforming how we look at the world.

The piece is part of the artistic universe of Jann Gallois, a choreographer with hip-hop roots known for her highly physical writing blending urban dance and contemporary dance. Since the creation of her company BurnOut, the now co-director of Agora, cité internationale de la danse in Montpellier has developed precise and expressive movement that questions human nature and how individuals can act together.

For her new creation, the artist draws on feminine energy. The dancers are powerful figures, like witches, goddesses, or nymphs. They embody a collective strength capable of overcoming the violence and tensions of the present. At no point, however, is the show a militant manifesto. Rather, it offers a poetic reflection on the bonds between human beings.

In the history of dance, this approach evokes certain ritual and community forms, but also the legacy of urban dances where energy circulates between performers. In Jann Gallois's work, this circulation becomes the metaphor for a humanity in search of harmony.
