14h00 • SCI FI ANATOMY (SFA) - Devenir Whales (Mode d'emploi) • Léa Kieffer, Timothée Nay • Workshop • FR / Fellering
SCI FI ANATOMY (SFA) est une pratique somatique développée par Léa Kieffer depuis 2017 qui glisse des références anatomiques vers la science-fiction. Au moyen du mouvement, du son et des récits, un dialogue se crée entre la matière du corps et la mer des pensées et de l’imagination. Les récits se déroulent souvent dans un futur post-apocalyptique, dans les profondeurs des mers qui rejoignent celles de l’univers : événements climatiques inattendus, interventions extra terrestres et créatures mystiques déclenchent métamorphoses et hybridations inter espèces. Temps et espace se mêlent et se dilatent : les os fondent, le sang croît comme du corail, de nouvelles espèces mutantes naissent.
Nous utiliserons la méthodologie de SCI Fi ANATOMY - pratique de storytelling somatique développée par Léa - et la MER DE JEANS - dispositif de sculptures textiles en denim qui passent de scénographies à costumes à sujets performatifs, extensions cyborg queue de cétacé qui altèrent les corps, queerisent le rapport sujet/objet et nous transforment en un clan de baleines d’eau douce.
SCI FI ANATOMY (SFA) is a somatic practice developed by Léa Kieffer since 2017 that weaves anatomical references into science fiction. Through movement, sound and storytelling, a dialogue is created between the physicality of the body and the vast expanse of thought and imagination. The narratives often unfold in a post-apocalyptic future, in the depths of the seas that merge with those of the universe: unexpected climatic events, extraterrestrial interventions and mystical creatures trigger metamorphoses and inter-species hybridisations. Time and space intermingle and expand: bones melt, blood grows like coral, new mutant species are born.
We will use the methodology of SCI Fi ANATOMY – a somatic storytelling practice developed by Léa – and the MER DE JEANS – a series of denim textile sculptures that shift from scenography to costumes to performative subjects, cyborg-like cetacean tail extensions that alter bodies, queer the subject/object relationship and transform us into a clan of freshwater whales.

Léa Kieffer is a French performer, choreographer, and costume and clothing designer based in Berlin. Her work explores processes of transformation as well as the dialogue between imagination and physicality through dance, bodywork, and craftsmanship, in hybrid and transdisciplinary formats. Her dance is influenced by a background in sports and craftsmanship, as well as by training in postmodern dance focused on improvisation, particularly contact improvisation and somatic practices. Drawing on this diverse body of knowledge, she has developed a practice that includes performance for an audience, performed improvisation, the creation of her own pieces, teaching and research through somatic practices, as well as the creation of clothing and costumes for the stage. All of her practices are rooted in the development of new narratives of the body and movement, drawing particular inspiration from science fiction, action films, and B-movies. Her current research, « Sci fi anatomy, » is a hybrid performance-workshop that creates a dialogue between the materiality of the body and the ocean of our thoughts. Since 2012, she has been creating, alongside her creative partner Rocio Marano under the name Los(t) Ninjas, multimedia performances such as « Matter of Blood » and « Blind Date (Literally), » as well as « Los(t) Ninjas Practice » workshops, all while sharing a life adventure.
