Rémy Héritier has created more than a dozen works since 2004. In these different pieces, he involves in his choreographic writing the reoccurrence of temporal, spatial strata in places, developing the depth of the past to reach the present.
This archaeological excavation in a given context, his personal history of dance as well as that of his/her collaborators, enables him to shift towards notions linked to other disciplines such as intertextuality, re-enactment or the Third landscape, and thereby to convoke a new poetics of gesture.
He favors both long-term processes and interventions in specific territories to address art forms that belong to both performance and exhibition. Dispositions (2008), Chevreuil (2009), Une étendue (2011), Percée Persée (2014), Here, then (2015), Une danse ancienne (Prilly, Grenoble, Cajarc – 2020-(…)) and Une forme brève (2021) have been regularly shown, both in and outside the theater.
