COMPANY WANG RAMIREZ
EVERYNESS
North American Touring Feb 14 – March 18, 2018
“a seamless blend of hip hop with elements of contemporary dance so fluid that the toprock, windmills and power moves slip into the routines without any fanfare, as if they were always part of that vocabulary.” London Dance
With their new production “EVERYNESS”, Wang Ramirez continues their search for an authentic choreographic universe, through their personal and unique approach to body, movement and scenography.
They focus on the fabric of human relationships, both in friendship and in romance this time using six dancers, and a seventh character; a white and almost transparent sphere.
The sparse set, designed by French artist Constance Guisset, is in constant transformation and creates an atmosphere of both fullness and depletion. A huge white sphere graces a bare stage, diving or hanging in space. Wang & Ramirez become visual artists, sculpting space. EVERYNESS defines a new world where suspension and weight give life to Guisset’s globe, like a star filled with light and desires.
