Accumulation #2
Accumulation #1 - PEUX-JE and Accumulation #2 are the
two first parts of a triptych in which Dominique Jégou
experiments three working contexts from which various
possibilities of dance emerge.
For this project, Dominique Jégou works with:
- The poet and the performeur Charles Pennequin,
- The musician and the composer of electronic music Olivier Sens,
- Visual artist, designer Jocelyn Cottencin // project in the course of creation
Each of these projects is a collaboration and a co-writing with the invited
artists one by one.
By associating them during the same evening, these three projects are going
to get clearer each other.

The second form of the triptych Accumulations is at first a journey from
Dominique Jégou’s and Catherine Legrand choreographic archives .
It develops an accumulation of proposals becoming constraints harder and
harder to consider as the dancers.
Try for example to dance simultaneously a module of Levying of the conflicts
of Boris Charmatz, a movement of Strange Days of Dominique Bagouet, quickly
while turning(shooting) the head from right to left without stopping jumping
and saying a text evoking this process most quietly possible.
The music was composed secondly by Olivier Sens and joins the dance in
several ways : by moment very synchronized, it also gets loose from it until
finding moments of “no relationship “ where it exists then in a autonomous
way, fairly distanced from the dance.
Ronan Bernard’s lightings are also partly improvised and based on an
elementary railing of proposals.
InterviewwithDominiqueJégouetOlivierSens
Dominique Jégou : “I chose to take support on archives, to treat them in
different and simultaneous manners and to see what happened.
Then there was all this work of accumulation of constraints, in particular by
making dances with three or four indications as we dance with ear monitors.
And I think that we could continue to develop because when I see Catherine
dancing this part where she makes Dominique Bagouet’s extract mixed with
Boris Charmatz’s room part while turning the head to the right and to the left,
while jumping, while speaking, that makes five simultaneous tasks, when I see
her making it I say to myself that we could again add a new task with this idea
that we made this work of saturation to approach a zone which would be almost
an unhooking, which could suspend the possibility of being virtuoso.”
Olivier Sens : “We always speak about the relationship between dance and music
et we finaly explored the non-relationship, to where we could disconnect the
music of the dance. That’s why we use ear-monitor which allows Catherine and
Dominique to hear things different from what is broadcast as music in facade.”
Dominique Jégou : “It’s you who have in a second time created synchronous or
unsynchronous modes of playing with processes of sound transformation which
doesn’t corresponded at all with those of the dance.”

Olivier Sens : “We surf on a limit where permanently we wonder what is going
to happen, if it’s deliberate or not. That is by leaving of an autonomous music,
stronger than usually, that allows to give another timing to the dance. We
generate breaths where nothing happened. Finally there are not only danced
moments, but also there are extremely slow moments. It is almost no more
dance, it becomes musical photos, I like this idea.”
DOMINIQUE JÉGOU
To work choreographic forms having a strong temporal definition, it teases
Dominique Jégou since 2003, period when his choreographic writing was
more established on spatial devices ; at this moment, the dancers had to replay
/ to transform / to destroy the scores of movements proposed by Dominique
Jégou. Since a few years the temporality found itself even more in the center
of his work.
After having worked personally on accumulation during 365 days in
2011, Dominique Jégou is actually working on the creation of the trilogy
Accumulations with Charles Pennequin (sound poet, performer artist), Olivier
Sens (musician, composer) and Jocelyn Cottencin (artist, designer).
The first part, Accumulation #1 – PEUX-JE, with Charles Pennequin was created
in october 2012. The second part, Accumulation #2 was created in Brest the 1st
of february 2014. The third part, with Jovelyn Cottencin, is actually in creation.
In parralel of these shows performed in theatres, Dominique Jégou pursues
his choreographic work in other formats and lengths which differ from stage
performance : choreograhic films, conference shows, performance art... He
also performs in Boris Charmatz’s Levée des Conflits.
Dominique Jégou is always involved in the training of professional dancers
and the transmission of Dominique Bagouet’and Trisha Brown’s repertoire
OLIVIER SENS
After having studied the piano and the guitar, Olivier Sens choose the double
bass, the instrument which he works with Dave Holland, Palle Danielson and
Bernard Cazauran. Noticed by Henri Texier in 1992, he participates with the
latter in various training courses. He receives a “Django d’ Or” for the disk the
Poetic Resistance (trio with Sébastien Texier and Christophe Marguet).
Founder member of the company The ZAM with François Merville and Vincent
Courtois, he is a part of several groups among which the quartet of Bojan Z,
the trio of Denis Badault, the trio of Hasse Poulsen.
At the same time, he develops his activities in the field of the electronic music
and developed the original interactive software “USINE”.
Besides, professor of double bass to the academy of Bagneux from 1998 till
2001 and at present Bagnolet, he assures the educational direction of the
training course of the “ Coomb of Louba “ in Ardèche.
In 2013, Olivier Sens allies his talent to those of Dominique Jégou, with who he
has already collaborated repeatedly (Cubing, Un si petit espace au creux du
temps), for the project Accumulation 2.
CATHERINE LEGRAND
Symbolic interpreter of Dominique Bagouet with whom she begins her dancer’s
course, she participates in all his pieces until 1990. Catherine Legrand also takes
part in the creation of “Les Carnets Bagouet”. She contributes as such to the
transmission of the Saut de l’ange, the Petites pièces de Berlin, Jours étranges and
collaborates to the project Matière Première. She pursues her interpreter’s route
with Hervé Robbe, Olivia Grandville and, more recently, Deborah Hay, Alain Michard,
Emmanuelle Huynh either still Boris Charmatz. She collaborates in particular with
the latter to Con forts fleuve and Levée des conflits. Dominique Jégou is also a
choreographer with whom she worked several times (Cubing, Cubing Bis,Un si
petit espace au creux du temps, their common passion for the work of Bagouet
having already bound them for several years.
