Hubris 2026
La Biennale de Danza, Venice
A dance-theatre work that questions the architecture of power in the contemporary world, reconnecting with the Greek notion of Hubris – arrogance, domination and excess. Performed by the 16 dancers of the Biennale college, the piece unfolds within a stripped bak landscape of white boards: an austere yet malleable material capable of evoking classrooms, border checkpoints, banquet halls, contested territories and fragile drifting boats.
