After Faunes, Israeli choreographer Sharon Eyal returns to theOpéra national de Paris with her first creation on pointe. She adapts OCD Love, a piece created in 2015, inspired by a text by American poet and slammer Neil Hilborn, which evokes obsessive-compulsive disorders and their impact on love relationships. Through hypnotic, organic dance, she explores the difficulty of loving and the complexity of human connections, carried by the visceral energy that characterizes her work.
