Having worked and working in different projects as co-creator, performer, composer, acrobat, acrodancer or interpreter, such as Exit (2022-now, acrodance, directed by Piet van Dycke), On point, (2019-2023, partnering duet), Hug (2020-2022, partnering and music, duet with Saphia Loizeau), Entre deux mondes (acrodance and trampoline), he then embarked on a solo path with La vieille souche (2023-now, acrodance and partnering with a tree). The idle hour will be the first piece of Motus murmuri, directed by Samuel Rhyner, in collaboration with William Blenkin.
The idle hour is a thought-provoking, non-verbal contemporary circus performance that explores the relentless pursuit of productivity in modern society.
Set against a stark stage with a human-sized hamster wheel, the piece features two acrobats whose contrasting personalities—one frantic and the other calm—unfold through a series of physical interactions. The wheel becomes both a symbol and an instrument of their existential struggle: a metaphor for the endless race toward an elusive happiness.
Through a fusion of acrobatics, dance, and sound, the performance invites the audience to reflect on the pressures of modern life, the search for meaning, and the potential for peace amidst chaos.
