La Sisyphe

ON TOUR

The advisability of playing again " Les Sisyphe" three years after the creation caused in me the need for radicalizing this project.
This project was born from a reflexion on the "unproductive and useless" activities the way modern society defines it.
Les Sisyphe combined a two solitary characters, who had each chosen a way to give their never ending movement a shape, for an enumeration of extensive activities, without compensation, only motivated by the one desire of taking part in the realisation of an act.
They were justified by the only desire to test the reality of their ephemeral and sensual presence.
In this new version, I appropriated the two roles : feminine and masculine. The experiment of the metamorphoses caused by exhaustion is a solitary test as a way to check our own limits.

All these activities which do not produce anything else that loss represent and perspire all that is more human in each one of us :
To run to its loss.
