duration : 55’
Jellyselfish («gelée d'égo») is a choreographic piece that tries to bring out paradoxical, comic and terrifying figures, built from the new forces of power that govern our contemporary society, both oppressive and filled with fantasy.
Jellyselfish was created at the Centre for Contemporary Art Glasgow during the REPLAYING IT AGAIN symposium from 14 to 18 May 2024.

Dodescaden is a company based in Marseille, managed by Laurence Maillot and Jérémy Demesmaeker. Their different choreographic pieces are the result of a creative process that mixes dance, music and theatre, resulting from observations and studies of affected bodies in our contemporary societies. Since their first piece, Rues Intérieures, in 2014, their choreographic ambition has been to invent spaces of resistance as well as possible spaces of emancipation, allowing the emergence of a being reinvented in the contemporary world. Their work always involves the invention of new rituals, in the sense of creating a community of the moment. It’s always about dance and theatre.
