Summer 2019. In the streets of Rio de Janeiro, women gather together through the rhythm of samba and carnival, taking over spaces traditionally occupied by men. Their powerful bodies and strong voices disturb and question the norms of a patriarchal Brazilian society. While Brazilian democracy is under threat, they build a place of healing through resistance and joy, writing a new page into Rio’s culture. Photos © Eleonore Ardelanot



Rio, été 2019. Des femmes s’unissent au rythme du carnaval et de la samba pour renverser les normes d’une société brésilienne patriarcale. Leurs corps et leurs voix débordent et dérangent dans le chaos harmonieux d’une ville où la menace totalitaire devient de plus en plus réelle. Photos © Eleonore Ardelanot

Rio est une Femme

In my ethnicity - Éwé - the formation of musical polyrhythm encompasses not only sound aspects but also motion, with each dancer acting as an additional layer of the musical polyrhythm. Polycentrism intertwines in this game where one becomes a flux of patterns as if they had a life of their own. The performance dives into this intimate relation with multiple vibrations, waves and frequencies as polyrhythm-graphy. Through it, I sculpt sound, become rhythm and chew a decolonial concept of choreography. Photo Christiane da Cunha

Dans mon appartenance ethnique - Éwé - la formation de la polyrythmie musicale englobe non seulement les aspects sonores mais aussi le mouvement, chaque danseur agissant comme une couche supplémentaire du polyrythme musical. Le polycentrisme s'entremêle dans ce jeu où l'on devient un flux de motifs comme s'ils avaient une vie propre. La performance plonge dans cette relation intime avec de multiples vibrations, ondes et fréquences comme la polyrythmie-graphie. À travers elle, je sculpte le son, je deviens rythme et je mâche une conception décolonialisée de la chorégraphie. Photo Christiane da Cunha
