(L. Raquel, Writing about Dance)
*Wanderlust*
Devised by Dominique Vannod
@Late Bloom Festival, The Space Theater, London
'Wanderlust' is a playful tale that looks at duality. This solo performance is dedicated to the child within us who trusts its joy as it perceives the world with hope, enthusiasm and wonder.
" You took us like a breeze, like a whisper in a fainted dream of something that we know we have lost"
(audience member)
" Outrageous - Brave - A captivating performance, such a furious one! It challenged the audience, at times it made me empathetic, then made me laugh, at other times I felt voyeuristic"
(audience member)
* Unscripted *
Devised by Dominique Vannod
@Clarence Mews studios, London
'Unscripted' is a dance-theater tale depicting the chaotic yet empowering process of personal growth, as one has to let go of its former identity to embrace a new life chapter.
"It's happening in a reality that is slightly altered, slightly different from this reality. It's the character of a book"
(audience member)
"The movement score was astonishing as you looked like a roll. I was captivated from the beginning"
(audience member)

Reviews update!
"The highlight of the whole show was the performance by Dominique Vannod, angularity supreme across her body as she moved on all fours trying to conquer the restraint of the turning disc. The sharpness of her bones (shoulder blades, wrists etc) jutting through the skin in seemingly impossible ways was breathtaking. It conjured both insect and some larger beast, suggestive of being multi-limbed and not just restricted to the normal two/four of the human. Simply spellbinding." (Marc Nash // Sulci Collective)
"The highlight for me was watching a rather muscular woman (Dominique Vannod) take on an animal persona as she moved across the stage on her haunches, pawing towards her target and allowing a thoughtfulness to pulse through her motions to show her thought process evolving as she got closer and closer in strategy to reaching her goal." (Emily Pulham // Making the Marrow)

"Dominique performed a central role in Biped’s Monitor – Arbonauts’ acclaimed site-specific performance at dusk in Nunhead Cemetery. Dominique’s acute characterization and eagerness to push to the limits - coupled with a total commitment to the physical language of the production made her an essential energetic influence of our production. Her focus and stamina was evident throughout, and her ability to transport an audience’s experience through her embodiment of gesture, her intensity of gaze and raw energy is inspirational."

"On Red and Butterflies"
Created and directed by Alessandra Montagner
Performed at Bonnie Bird Theater, LABAN Dance School & Unhinged Festival, London 2012
With Rhys Cook"And then we left, with no words being professed to acknowledge our ending.
A lot had happened between us.
My I and your I, these two first persons, coexisted through times and spaces that leftmarks in both of us.
Our contract was finished and so had to be our feelings.
The nothingness of our situation is a lamentable loss of what we cannot understand yet.
It is like pinning down a butterfly that isn’t really there."Web >> http://www.unhingedfestival.com/alessandra-montagner/
