The male duo explores the relationship between two men who are alternately peers and rivals. In this dance are instances of barely touching, pressure, impact, improbable points of support, movement in which the energy and the solid mass of the bodies become an invitation to share the sensation of this experience. At once desired, galvanized, entwined and rejected – the bodies of the two dancers are shaped through these exchanges, alternating between sensuality and confrontation.
Malek Chebel’s ideas about homo sensuality are reflected in this work. The expression has anthropological roots «generally, a Middle Eastern point of view, more specifically Arab, in which in the absence of partners of the opposite sex, one carries over to one’s peers the excess of sensuality which he cannot otherwise express».
