Four performers dive into imagination, mental vulnerability and the longing for freedom through hip‑hop, house, popping and breakdance. A powerful call for greater empathy and for breaking down stigma.

With 'Nexus – En quête d’une voie', Oumar Diallo creates a space where perception falters and new connections to the world become possible. Conceived for four dancers rooted in street and club dance, the piece draws on hip‑hop, house, popping and breakdance to explore what within us exceeds reality.

Between movement, text, music and light, this creation becomes a sensory, physical and mental experience - steeped in imagination, the unconscious and the longing for freedom. It invites us to feel, with empathy, the mental vulnerabilities that are too often stigmatised, and to recognise them as part of our shared humanity.
