karnaval
Mathilde Rance (France)
Karnaval is a music and dance bestiary, a strange procession of fantastic and resonant animals. Mathilde Rance explores the collective and transgressive energy in carnivals, the echoes between popular rituals and social movements, as part of a process that she calls “demiurgeous utopist”.

After training in dance and choreography at CNDC in Angers, Mathilde Rance collaborated with Dominique Brun, Nathalie Pernette, Cyril Hériard Dubreuil, Wendy Beckett and Meryl Tankard. Also a musician, harpist and singer, she developed her work around musicality in choreography. In 2018, she resumed her education by enrolling in the Cycle de Formation Recherche et Composition Chorégraphiques at Royaumont Foundation.
