Le Touriste

LE TOURISTE

Performance, 25min. 2020

Rhizomatic in nature, this performance invites to an introspective and perpetual journey around a central point, still unknown, but geographically defined:
A tourist walk on the Parisian ring road.
Speaking about identity.
Social conflict.
Petty jealousy.
And the speaking subject as the empowered subject

This performance, primarily based on text and orality, is intended to operate as a mantra, an attempt to understand my own history and my connection to the city of my childhood through the eyes of a tourist. Alienation is clearly a part of the plot.

Musical accompaniment by Mihassou
