Inspired by several immersions in the prehistoric Combarelles cave in Dordogne, Pol Pi’s latest piece explores the transformations of the body and perception when faced with an environment that acts, resonates, and shifts reference points to open up a whole field of new experiences. In these depths, where time slows down, attention sharpens and listening expands. The physical contact with stone, humidity, darkness, and millennia-old engravings, makes the body undergo a metamorphosis. Inspired by the self-induced cognitive trance method developed by Corine Sombrun, Pol Pi experimented with states of trance, allowing the body to react to the forces of the place, becoming both sensor and receptacle. From these physical and sensory experiences, a dance emerges, full of reminiscences and latent images, a space of circulation between the visible and the invisible, between the human and the non-human. Pol Pi takes us on a descent that becomes an inner journey, towards darkness, where sight gives way to listening, and where other forms of attention to the place, to the elements, and to the links between the body and its environment are experienced.
