Red and Black
During this residency, Samir Laghouati-Rashwan will extend his practice by starting from the red color of the Albanian flag to create a sound and choreographic object. Far from the fanciful gaze on Albania, he will explore sound and movement as a complex landscape. He will use this form as an introduction to exchanges, strolls and wanderings to meet Tirana and its history.
