Libido sciendi

Two dancers, Nina Santes and Kévin Jean, enter the stage, strip down to their jeans and T-shirts and begin by melting into each other in a kiss. This opening is the prelude to a choreographed coupling, in which all parts of the body are brought together. Two naked bodies under the light, with no musical accompaniment other than the breaths and sonorous dialogue of the skins.
The supreme violence of art that cuts into the human condition at the site of its deepest secret, Libido Sciendi, conceived and directed by Pascal Rambert, is a literal treatise on erotic desire, a pure writing of the body at the service of dance alone. The extreme sensual relationship with the other's body gives rise to the figure of an inner body quivering with desire, devouring, absolute. Instead of a purely sexual relationship, the whole body. Pascal Rambert is not interested in pornography, which he deems devoid of the imaginary. He wants to show the erotic relationship to life. "
Libido Sciendi means both "I learn through sex" and "I am taught through sexuality". The show
is less about seeing than learning. v
