As in previous works, the choreographer investigates the relationship between body and matter, staging materials not as pure background, nor as narrative objects, but putting them on the same level of importance as the dancer. The dance is thus imbued with the sounds, forms, visible and tactile qualities of wood that in turn becomes a dancing body.
