t.r.a.n.s.i.t.s.c.a.p.e is a Brussels-based dance company which confronts and cross dance with architecture and cinema.

 

Their projects are mainly dance performances and films.Created in 2003 in Hong Kong by the artist ​​Pierre Larauza ​with the choreographer/dancer ​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

​Emmanuelle Vincent​​​​​​​​​​, the company is now based in Belgium and creates projectsall over the world with international collaborators.

 

Their projects fit in the interdisciplinary research, and through them weaim to look into the amalgamation between different media and to erasethe borders between disciplines. They try to create an ambiguous, nonhierarchicaland striking relationship between bodies, spaces, dramaturgy and technology.Physical and mental movement is a recurring theme in their creations, and intercultural relations hold a prominent place.

 

Transit locations (airports,hotel rooms but also game centres, call shops, …) are the base for ourreflection on loneliness and the suspension in between here and elsewhere.The movement from one medium to another is the key to the discoursemodulated by our performances, giving birth to hybrid and ever-changing projects. To question the place of the spectator and the implication from witness tovoyeur. Faced with a non-linear narrative and a complex display (scenic or urban),

the spectator has to recompose. Our aim is to upset the traditional representative system 

– to overthrow the codes. Their narrative is composed of collages and deformations, with a particular interest in disintegration, discontinuity and fragmentation, offering a newform of contemporary fable to the spectator.
