Alone on a two-by-two-meter podium, Arthur Perole takes over this place of pure generosity, where body and emotional vibration are one. He immerses himself in the musical offerings of Marcos Vivaldi, who distills love songs, Italo disco, new beat and excerpts from interviews. Dressed in a simple sequined tank top or fur coat, our romantic dancer oscillates between sensuality, jerks, anguished slow-motion and the need for tenderness. This personal celebration is based on a permanent movement of undulating, intimate gestures, which give the impression that he is literally waltzing with our dreams, fears and bodily frustrations. His work on body states in successive metamorphoses focuses attention on isolations (face, morphing, slow motion), inviting us on a journey into his interiority. The relationship forged with viewers unfolds an imaginary world that touches on the complexity of human beings, the construction of multiple identities and the ambivalence of feelings.

At the age of 3, Arthur Perole put both feet in the artistic world at once: the first in dance, the other in circus. For the next 13 years, he combined these two arts, putting on his end-of-year dance gala and circus parade at the village market every Sunday. He developed a particular attraction to the power of culture to bring people together. In the end, he chose dance, entering the Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Paris. He took part in creations by Edmond Russo / Shlomi Tuizer, Cristiana Morganti. With the Junior Ballet, he dances Wedding by Angelin Preljocaj and Uprising by Hofesh Shechter. Arthur continued his career as a performer with Tatiana Julien, Annabelle Pulcini, Radhouane El Meddeb and Joanne Leighton. In 2010, he founded CieF to develop his artistic projects and satisfy his desire to create for the stage, as well as for parties, in-situ performances and a documentary film.

 

" Pierrot de l'amour, Perole dances the desire to live and sublimates the kitsch of a very show escapism, where everything is illusion, and yet necessary to us. (...) A poem danced with great sincerity. "
