Night: Light
Alban Richard has created Night: Light, a work designed for IRCAM's Espace de projection: an installation-performance that combines several scores; the musical score of Raphaël Cendo, the lighting score of Valérie Sigward, and the choreographic score of Alban Richard.
These three mediums work together in a porous mutual effort to sculpt the time and space of a venue, to submerge the audience. Performed by Alban Richard, the dance is based on a protocol of actions to be carried out, and on constant research of the notion of pivot-movements found throughout the labyrinthine writing. A process that finds resolutions only in relentless activity.
