(elsewhere is forward)PitchCollective/LessFrance / Botswana

Collective/less embraces collaboration and interdisciplinarity, using historical, political, and social themes as creative foundations beyond choreography.

In a world where borders rise and minds close, reinventing an individual’s relationship with the body creates a space of connection. Research with four Botswana San artists has informed Collective/less’s work to create a vibrant ritual with voices and bodies rising to heal and connect.
