Nuna Company / YoungSoon Cho Jaquet
Rope is a participative performance. All the wrists in the public are bond together with ropes of variable lengths, quickly forming a whole choreography of its own. Ropes cross and intertwine creating new shapes.
In her hand, YoungSoon Cho Jaquet holds ropes, some small, others long. The spectators’ wrists are attached to one end of a rope, the other end being attached to another person so that everyone is linked to everyone. The choreographer shows the movements and teaches the public.

- Production : Michael Scheuplein
If it rains, the event will be held in the main hall of EPFL’s SG building
