PHILIPPE BELOUL

Welcome Home can be described as a piece where one encounters a man in his space, home or work, doing things and being surrounded by his daily routines. It is a 'piece', presented to an audience, starting and ending, with a certain duration. There is no 'story', in a narrative sense, even if the elements are of an 'ordinary' kind.

“In my idea it is how things are ordered and organized, and how they are presented, that the piece is about. I use both existing and sampled material from music and film, I use computer programs and softwares, and I use choreographic procedures which I mix and use together in different ways. This material, and how this is played with, or treated, is to some part the content of the piece”.
