Déproduction evolved following choreographer Perrine Valli's research residency “Villa Médicis Hors les murs”, supported by CulturesFrance in Tokyo from September to December 2009. Through two engaging solo pieces, Déproduction raises the question of how culture influences the construction of identity.
The first performance, interpreted by Kazuma Glen Motomura, is an account of the exchanges on dance between the choreographer and his dancer during this period. It explores the dancer’s profession and the political context in which he works, as well as a Japanese man’s position in this specific artistic context.
The second performance interpreted by Airi Suzuki, recounts the story of an imaginary couple, Marc and Yukiko, where the themes of marriage, seduction, love experience and sexual life is explored and questions the issue of cultural imprinting on the development of female identity.
[Déproduction] generates a constant ebb and flow between experiences, cultures and different temporalities, subtly leading the spectator to reflect on the condition of contemporary dance creation.

Using a little to express a lot and revealing great flexibility (both of mind and body) Déproduction is minimal in appearance only: the horizon of thought that opens out to the spectator is vast and the pleasure that it procures immense.
