'MIZU' is a poignant dance, where an ice puppet embodies memory and time. The performance, conceived by Théâtre de L’entrouvert and Companie Furankaï, reflects on the human body's 60% water content and Earth’s 70% coverage in ice.
Puppeteer Élise Vigneron says it highlights 'the passage from form to formlessness,' while choreographer Satchie Noro sees it as a meditation on doubling and disappearance. The melting ice reveals the nature of the double, with reflections slipping away before one can escape them.
The stage setting combines unique architectural environments and puppetry explorations, creating an immersive experience where Sarah Lascar sometimes joins the dance to form trios immersed in water. Performances this summer will grace festivals and venues across Europe.
SUNI reflects on how 'MIZU' reminds us of life's transient beauty through ice’s fragile nature, encouraging audiences to cherish fleeting moments.
