About

Alexandre Roccoli draws his inspiration from the source of possession dances as they may have appeared in Morocco, particularly in the Gnaoua brotherhoods but also in certain more urban contemporary cultures, from hip hop to house music. By playing with the repetition of movements and sounds, Alexandre Roccoli produces a circular, hypnotic and magnetic aesthetic where the body is seized by the vertigo of dance. Between a state of grace and a state of shock, the energy and virtuosity of young Moroccan dancer Yassine Aboulakoul transmits a mad desire to dance.
