Along with his Compagnie 111, Aurélien Bory has gained a reputation as a poet of space and a wizard of staging--an artist capable of blending elements of dance, music, magic, and circus in his visual theater.

Created from the essay Species of Space – Espèces d’espace by French writer Georges Perec, Espæce represents another innovative step on Bory’s artistic path. The presence of acrobats, dancers, actors, and singers correctly signals an unusual approach to the theatrical scene. Bory’s ‘space’ includes a colossal but infinitely flexible wall, paper pages of the famous text, and the manipulation of an arsenal of mathematical tools.
