Experiencing Interruptions?

Mille Feuille

”Everything in the world is about sex. Except sex — sex is about power.”
-said somebody sometime (source unkown)

Pina Bounce Dance Company's video piece Mille Feuille brings together our shared hangovers, nightly lusts and needs for sweets. It's a dream in a nightmare.

Within their private paradise live
Strange birds
With brilliant colours that make each voyeur gasp in awe.
Not a turn of a beak to see if anyone sees
They shamelessly perform their oddly familiar mating rituals
With innocent gestures and beastly eyes.

Pina Bounce Dance Company is a semi-serious, yet very professionally working contemporary dance group that was formed in 2017 by dance artist and choreographer Mari Vakkilainen. The experience level of the dancers ranges from beginners to professionals, we do it for the love of dance.
