For his debut creation with the Ballet of the Grand Théâtre de Genève, Damien Jalet presents “Mirage,” in collaboration with visual artist Kohei Nawa. Drawing inspiration from mirages and fata morgana, this piece delves into humanity’s existential quest through unpredictable transformations, intertwining mythology, climatology, and Japanese theatrical techniques. With music by Thomas Bangalter and costumes by Kunihiko Morinaga, “Mirage” offers a hallucinatory and sensual journey beyond mere appearances.
