Till beauty shines in all that we can see.
War is our scourge; yet war has made us wise
​And, fighting for our freedom, we are free..."

​ABSOLUTIO,solo

When I was asked to create  new work for the Royal Ballet School of Antwerpen , the idea rose to show a little glimpse of that work in progress on their  65th anniversary Gala  Performance few months  sooner.
Principal dancer Alain Honorez  dances a solo that is not directly taken out of that ballet, but rather one that emerged out of its choreographic material and soul.
What better inspiration to create new work  that  the incredible sensibility, grace and beauty of Alain’s dancing and interpretation. 


“In the process of letting go you will lose many things from the past, but you will find yourself.
It will be a permanent Self, rooted in awareness and creativity. Once you have captured this, you have captured the world”. 
-Deepak Chopra- 

This solo has been created for & danced by former principal dancer Alain Honorez (Royal Ballet Flanders) and  first  soloist Yanier Gomez N. (Compañia Nacional de Danza, Spain).
