Volumes

improvised music and dance

with Zoë De Sousa (dance et vocals), Philippe Foch (percussion) et Benjamin Duboc (double bass)

We are massive, balanced, voluminous

of every density, in power and in flow

our bodies in the space we hold

with vibrating half-words

we are invigorating contemplation and dust

a crimson dimension

a reflection of light

a slippery slope up to the neck

because with mass we strike, we pull

we are Volumes at work

Volumes within matter

a treatise on bulk and ravage 

on the edge of silence

we are storm and fever

and even in our dreams

we maintain our composure

Volumes, fervour and solidity

in space and time

Volumes, ravenous for docility

quantity in motion

We give substance to what we touch

and we live off matter

Thus bodies of fire and stone

Volumes at all times 

the meaning of our eyes

the story of our hands

completeness straddling

remains within us

form and existence
