Wang Ramirez

French-Hispanic-German-Korean couple Sébastien Ramirez and Honji Wang are renowned for their emotional and powerful blend of hip hop dance and contemporary movement. Their work derives from their blended identities, deepening their quest of finding new choreographic languages.

Borderline explores a weight game of constraint and freedom reflecting the realities of living together in our society. Attached to cables within a rigging system, the personal liberty of each dancer is challenged as only one can move forward. Yet the rigging also allows the freedom to explore movement without the restriction of gravity, evoking weightlessness like that in the imaginative world of the best martial arts films.
