Notre forêt / Huella
Morgane / Justine Berthillot
Two works in one: a dance solo and a documentary film. Two perspectives, two experiences, two artistic approaches to the Amazon and its present-day complexity.
Notre forêt / Huella brings together two pieces: a choreographic work (Notre forêt) that invites us to listen to the voices of the Amazon and lose ourselves in the rainforest, and a documentary (Huella) following a performance on tour through the Peruvian Amazon. Two works with much in common, presented one after the other.
The venue will also display the outcomes of an artistic residency – Exposar i representar les nostres geologies ancestrals (Exposing and Representing our Ancestral Geologies) – that Justine Berthillot will have carried out with the students of the Intermediate Vocational Course in Mural Arts at the Escola d’Art d’Olot.
Justine Berthillot is a circus artist, choreographer and director.
She creates pieces infused with multiple artistic fields and encounters, and enjoys blending artistic languages.
From Noos onward, she has explored how to write physicality—composing choreographic scores rooted in her acrobatic abilities. She enjoys deconstructing practices, stripping them down to their essence. In her cross-disciplinary approach to the performing arts, circus remains a constant—with its inherent risk-taking, extreme physical states, fragile balances, and above all, the intense physical commitment it demands.
