Since, she worked with José Vidal & Company (UK), James Finnemore (UK) , Clod Ensemble (UK), Jean-Guillaume Weis (LU), Bernard Baumgarten (LU), Seke Chimutengwende (UK), Seven Sisters Group (UK). From 2011 to 2013 she was part of the Tanztheater Kassel (DE) under the direction of Johannes Wieland. There, she worked with Johannes Wieland, Stephanie Thiersch, Michael Langeneckert and Chris Haring/Liquid Loft whose piece Lego Love was performed during Impulstanz2013. TOYS (2017) TOYS is the morning with a hangover. It is the game, the absolute, the disguise of tragedy behind the constant of celebration. It is the collapse of euphoria when bodies bask, when souls become lost and save one another. If “waiting is the essential aspect of our human condition” (“The Theatre of the Absurd”, Martin Esslin), then does forgetting become our salvation? Are pleasures becoming tricks into which we lose ourselves to forget the waiting? She also performed in music videos (The Kooks, Cash+David, Buridane amongst others) and choreographed the video Don’t you find by Jamie T. She directed and produced the dance-videos Sacre and N87HP Priory Road, screened in Germany, England, Luxembourg, India and France. She is currently a collaborator on Mode and Motion, an online publication exploring the synergy between dance and fashion. Her work is without compromise, absurd and tragi-comic. love me tender (2016) © Léa Tirabasso BIOGRAPHY Choreographer & dancer love me tender is a secret history of two loving souls. “The theatre of the Absurd and the aesthetic of dance-theatre partly inspire my work, both choreographically and dramaturgically. The starting point is often the human condition in its most bizarre manifestations. Pop culture is at the centre of the works , each piece attempts to build bridges between performance and philosophy and to discover how movement can emerge from other art forms, creating new material for dance through a collaborative process”. - Léa Tirabasso - Léa Tirabasso’s work was described “Poignant; often very funny; visually and aurally appealing” (Graham Watts), “definitely challenging conformist views of what dance can or cannot include” (Peter Lindley). It unravels the hidden sides of their minds and the depths of their bitter and yet oh so sweet fantasies. © Léa Tirabasso CREATIVE APPROACH “Love is only the species will for survival”, Arthur Schopenhauer Age: All audience | Duration: 40-50 min.
