Personne Danse
Personne Danse, a contemporary dance company founded by self-taught artist Charles-Alexis Desgagnés in 2022, is headquartered in Montreal. The organization's mission is to create and produce choreographic works allowing a democratization of contemporary dance as a political and social artform, at the equilateral intersection between somatic intelligence, emotional affects and physical commitment. A dance that can be described as animalistic, vulnerable and virtuoso at the same time characterizes the artistic director's current choreographic approach, the latter constantly navigating between aquatic fluidity and volcanic tonicity.
Charles-Alexis Desgagnés
Charles-Alexis Desgagnés, queer creator-performer, works in the fields of movement, cinema and teaching. His choreographic approach is defined by a triangular look at collective creation, vulnerability as a driving force and the desire for catharsis via dramaturgy. At the crossroads between dreamlike, disturbing strangeness, humor, virtuosity and political somatics, the choreographer's artistic universe is rich and varied. Charles-Alexis' vision celebrates atypical paths in dance, highlights performers-choreographers, values deeply committed physicality and seeks to represent stories or bodies of people from sexual diversity.
