ACT is the fruit of the artist’s long-term work with disabled people.
While some are actors, athletes or dancers, all have found in action and in the personal appropriation of common space the means to assert the complexity of their individuality beyond their assigned and reductive status as disabled. Denis Darzacq does not ignore the differences created by disability.
But it gives way to the affirmation of a mental universe that is particularly sensitive in stagings where the direction of the actors is supported by the spontaneity, even eccentricity, of the models who construct situations with their environment that are strongly imbued with dreamlike qualities.
