7.8. ˜˜˜● Meet the Artist

Duration 55 min

“Siguifin”, meaning “magic monster” in the Bambara language, is the result of a collective choreographic process initiated by French-Sengalese choreographer Amala Dianor. Working together with nine young dancers, collaborators Alioune Diagne (Senegal), Ladji Koné (Burkina Faso) and Naomi Fall (Mali) add to a diversified composition, addressing notions of individuality, social cohesion and cultural difference. This ‘choreographic exquisite corps’ celebrates the vitality of a hybrid African dance that is continually evolving.
