In this Latest edition, the Echelle Humaine festival embraces the movements of the artists, researchers,students, and audiences invited to take over LafayetteAnticipations while unveiling its spaces for play,porosity, and mutations.

Over the course of one weekend, Echelle Humaine hosts a series of polymorphous encounters: performances, installations, workshops, films, onversations, naps, a party, and many other opportunities to experience the connections that move us and to question their transformations.

Performer Ivan Cheng brings us his new piece, "Clarities",which upends the uses of language, genres, and, the spectacular. In a site-specific version of "Apocalypso", Luara Raio and Acauã El Bandide Sereia invoke deeply embedded images; their rituals reveal, layer by layer, the state of our burning earth. Alix Boillot proposes a "Scénographie potentielle", an islet of abstract and sensory shapes thatare constantly modified by activations, gazes, andwords. "L'Origine de la mort", a new performance piece by Paul Maheke, explores the dialogue between dance, sound, and identity, drawing upon elements of roller rink culture and the figure of the vampire. Choreographer Taos Bertrand leads a workshop withstudents from the Beaux-Arts de Paris, who then sharetheir research at the end of the festival. An ephemeral reading room, designed by Tai Shani, offers audiences a place of rest and discovery. A series of films, collective practices, and talks take place throughout the Fondation. All this, with the hope of sparking new waysto think, live, and move through the present, together.
