Galaxy: an installation by collectif Dito at the Centre national de la danse
Moving Surfaces for suspended bodies
"Our choice was to design the space from its center – Galaxy – shaping it with a wide range
of suspended volumes and surfaces. We leave the ground to invade heights. These functional elements revolve in interactions, suggesting uses, places of life, a landscape. It brings up an ecosystem where motion is suspended ... but apparently only. In fact it is a dynamic setting where the visitor is invited to contribute to the composition when walking. Manipulation of this constellation of objects make them evolving. Following guest intervention, element interacts like in a galaxy.
Initiated in 2006, the group Dito was awarded the Bourse Agora 2007 and today comprises
seven designers. Each member develops a prospective work in parallel to its personal projects. Its purpose is to draw a set of objects creating a shared language.
