“Takemehome” by Dimitri Chamblas and Kim Gordon is a visual and auditory experience featuring dance performances, electric guitars, and amplifiers.
SFDFF and MerciSF partner to promote “Takemehome” a unique collaboration with choreographer Dimitri Chamblas and Kim Gordon from Sonic Youth. A work for nine dancers, five electric guitars, and five amplifiers, “takemehome” is the latest creation of Dimitri Chamblas and Kim Gordon that takes shape under a luminous zeppelin where silhouettes emerge and disappear. These shadows are the forgotten ones of the great metropolises: prisoners, elders, unproductive ghosts, the neglected, the indecisive. Rendered visible in this device, itself ready to disappear, and embodied by dancers with precise movements, they wander, hesitate, or suddenly assert a vital impulse, display an attempt, repeat it, share it. In these emergences, in this collective isolation, telepathy and intuition maintain communication. Between the lines, under your skin, the driving force of the future and of the living continues to circulate and resist.
