My Fierce Ignorant Step
Christos Papadopoulos
In 2026, Dance Reflections by Van Cleef & Arpels is supporting several international touring dates of My Fierce Ignorant Step by Christos Papadopolous, after having supported the creation in 2025.
It's a performance about the euphoria of being alive. Ten dancers create an ecstatic soundscape and the choreography emerging from it. Memories and listens, voices and bodies, all resonate like musical instruments, gradually building toward a shared exhilaration. The minimalist Greek choreographer’s new work explores how movement becomes a song, one in which the dancers’ bodies pulsate—and through them, potentially, the bodies of the audience. An optimistic, extroverted, and enchanting new work about the first times we met, laughed, lived. About the passionate beginnings.
"I remember that lust for life, the speed, the unwavering drive, the sense that anything was possible. [...] This work is my attempt to revisit that feeling. To find it again." Christos Papadopoulos
