A wind artist and dancing plastic bags drifting through the air. Created without words and woven only through the movement of air, this work brings life to the stage as the wind breathes new life into discarded objects. Set to the music of Debussy, this fantastical performance—where wind and objects seem to converse—offers a 25-minute experience that unlocks the imagination of audiences of all ages, from children to adults.
Overview

- Compagnie Non Nova – Phia Ménard
Compagnie Non Nova is a performing arts company founded in 1998 in Nantes, France by the artist Phia Ménard. Guided by the motto “We invent nothing, we simply see differently,” the company creates and tours its works internationally while maintaining its base in Nantes.
Phia Ménard entered the world of performing arts after encountering the work of the juggling artist Jérôme Thomas. In 2012, she received the Total Theatre Award for Best Physical/Visual Theatre at the Edinburgh Festival Fringe, and in 2014 she was awarded the Chevalier of the Order of Arts and Letters by the French Ministry of Culture. Her works have since been presented on major international stages including documenta 14, the Avignon Festival, and the Biennale de la Danse de Lyon.
