the unstable beauty of twilight — a suspended space where identities slip and multiply, and where the body reveals its quiet, double nature.
Entre Chien et Loup names the fragile hour when the world slips out of certainty. It is twilight — the gloaming — when light thins and the contours of things begin to blur. The phrase comes from an old French sensitivity to atmosphere: the threshold when day loosens its grip and night begins to gather, when colours drain into blue and grey and edges soften. What was once clear becomes ambiguous. Between dog and wolf lies an hour of transformation, when the known and the unknown coexist, and safety and danger, intimacy and distance, the domestic and the feral share the same ground. It is a time when imagination awakens and perception becomes uncertain. In this collaboration, choreographer James Gnam, composer and sound artist Scott Morgan, lighting designer James Proudfoot, and media artist Eric Chad work together to explore a shared landscape of perception and transformation. Together, they create a shifting perceptual terrain where the boundaries between presence and absence, form and atmosphere, body and environment remain fluid. The work invites audiences into a threshold space — where perception becomes unstable, imagination awakens, and the familiar world briefly transforms.
