Made-to-Measure/twenty looks or paris is burning at the judson church (M2M)
Pour cette version ‘sur mesure’, Trajal Harrell s’est amusé à inverser la proposition de départ, en reformulant sa question : ce n’est plus « que ce serait-il passé si un danseur de la scène du voguing s’était rendu à la Judson Church? », mais « que serait-il arrivé si un membre de la Judson Church avait rendu visite aux vogueurs de Harlem pour danser avec eux? »
En clôturant sa série sur cette inversion, il ouvre la perspective d’une recombinaison quasi infinie des signes et des cadres qui structurent le travail du chorégraphe, et invite danseurs et spectateurs à un exercice critique et ludique constant.
Relire, reformuler, recombiner, sans jamais cesser de croiser les formes, les sources, les genres, avec cette ‘realness’ incommensurable comme seul point de mire – telle pourrait être l’éthique du voguing selon Trajal Harrell.
Dansant lui-même dans chaque version, rentrant dans toutes les tailles, s’ajustant aux cadres fictionnels qu’il a formulés, il fait aussi de cette clôture sur mesure une célébration en forme de libération : un hommage flamboyant aux deux formes qu’il a taillées, rapiécées, auxquelles il a fait subir toutes sortes de reprises et d’ajustement pendant près de quatre ans.
