Resolution Festival

The image is divided into three parts. On the left, a dancer in a red fringed outfit performs a deep back-arched floor pose on a dimly lit wooden stage.  In the middle, a group of people in formation, with the central figure wearing a black studded gilet and beige loose trousers, leaning backward and raising an arm above their face.  On the right, a person in a white shirt and black trousers raises one arm sideways in dim, warm light, with shadows across their shirt forming three silhouetted figures.

EntreCuerpos

A solo performance directed and performed by Isadora D'Héloïsa. An encounter between Vogue and Flamenco, two heritages forged in marginalised histories and resistance.

Entrecuerpos embodies unruly and expanding femininities in a continuum of transformation: awakening and enlightenment, self-affirmation and empowerment, sovereignty and celebration, ignited by the primitive and the instinctual.

Framed by the contorted and sculptural lines of New Way Vogue, a photographic and couture gaze, inherited from ballroom culture and its aesthetics, D'Héloïsa reimagines flamenco poetry as a living extension of being, a vessel of audacity, grace, sensuality, playfulness and fierce power.

This dialogue is shaped by an original composition by Bryan Reyes (guitar), Ago Hernandez (percussion), and Carlos de Luisa (cante).

In this confluence of heritage and reinvention, the living femininity and queer essence bloom as intimate, political and viscerally beautiful. An invitation to enter a space where presence remembers and reclaims itself.

About Isadora D'Héloïsa

Isadora D'Héloïsa (she/her) is a French-Tunisian dance artist, born in Paris and based in London. She is a member of the iconic House of Milan and walks balls internationally in New Way Vogue and Arms Control.

She has trained in flamenco in Spain at Fundación Cristina Heeren (Seville), Amor de Dios (Madrid) and Centro de Baile de Jerez (Jerez de la Frontera).

Her choreographic work emerges through improvisation, where New Way Vogue, flamenco and experimental intertwine — a space where heritage blooms into new forms. Her practice centres the feminine in its sacred and unruly expressions, while opening towards the more-than-human. She also collaborates with visual artists in live art performance.

Archive/Flesh/Echoes

A choreographic experiment shaped by rave culture, bodily presence, and the shared experiences of individuals and collectives. Rather than replicating a rave, the piece constructs a singular, liminal space - one that emerges from the fleeting, unstable, and often invisible forces pulsing through collective gatherings. With the mutual influence of movement, beats, and breath, sensations and emotions ripple and expand in unison, while time distorts.

From 10pm to 7am, when the night dissolves and daylight falls upon the emptied space, what remains?

An invisible archive of energy left behind by moving bodies.

About Qi Song

Qi Song is a Chinese dancer and choreographer currently based in London. With extensive experience in performance and creation, her work spans across theatre, public space, and screen. Rooted in improvisation, her practice integrates body language and emotional presence, cultivating a movement style that is raw, powerful, wild, fluid, and emotionally charged.

Drawing from a diverse dance background, she has developed a unique physical vocabulary that emphasizes instinct as a primary force driving human movement. For her, choreography is a search for expression between the abstract and the concrete. In recent years, she has collaborated with sound and visual designers to explore the potential of dialogue between body and sound.

At the crossroads, a reckoning

A special guest.
For one night only.
Questions become barbed.
Everything isn’t quite what it seems.
