The work of Nathalie Bard is based on the singularity of language by movement.
Energy and physical commitment are a compositional base.
Her choreographies systematically infringe the vision of the reality surrounding us
to reveal a different reading of it,
a hidden side that will show all the better its existence.
“Nathalie Bard is an author.
She writes her angers, her questions, her injuries
with the body of her dancers. She defines herself, not without humour,
‘on the fringe of contemporary dance’,
if not ‘completely on the fringe’.”
Toulouse Passion
In the world of 'all labelling'
I refuse to take my reference points.
I loathe fashions :
plant-like, I search my roots ;
animal, I follow my instinct.
I avoid to question myself about style
to keep the rawest of my art."
