Synopsis

REST in Paris is a summary of dance experiences and explorations of site in the urban nature and culture of the French capital, and into the nature of collaboration and togetherness of the participants. It culminated in a performance in May 2025, directed by Jude Walton and shown at the Cinemorphe theatre company in Paris. A kind of prism and a starting point for new cycles, the theme drifts from urban nature to art, to philosophy and finally to love, as expressed and lived through dance. Rest in Paris The book, less a documentation than a parallel reworking of the project in words and images, portrays and discovers aspects of this making process.
