PHILIPPE BLANCHARD Philippe’s creative work has a
lways pushed boundaries and refused to conform to expectations, or to stay firmly in one box. The development of the aesthetic is a continuous process of investigation, and it is with this intention, of questioning and examining, that future works will evolve. His most recent work There is no such thing as silly things is the follow-up to the critically acclaimed performance This is that. In the performance, the professional performers try their best to unlearn how to dance. It is a performance about foolishness and about grown-ups playing childish games without playing the kid.
