THE WORK 

The fundamental aspect of Léa Tirabasso's work looks at the human overall, often represented as a whole, through more or less monstrous shapes. (..) From there, her provocative gaze dictates, one piece after the next, a kind of great philosophical treatise about those who haunt the current world.

The work explores the bridges between emotional and physical states and how they generate, in a constant back and forth, movements; it celebrates the collision between the graceful and the dissonant, the comic and the tragic, the grotesque and the transcendent. 

Raw, primal, bizarrely human.

I am interested in the notions of tension, voyeurism, instinct, exhaustion and brutality. 

I am interested in creating physicalities that are liberating for the bodies, in distorted bodies on stage, movements and gestures that show our twisted souls.

I want to offer a visceral, sometimes disturbing, work; disturbing by its honnesty and its rawness.
A cathartic work and experience both for the audience and for my collaborators.
 

I thrive for a dance that is to be felt more than one that it is to be watched, for distorted bodies…ruthlessly liberated. ​
