This project is the result of five years of research on the digital capture of the body in motion and its printed transcription. It is part of the visual identity mandate of graphic designer Adeline Mollard for Théâtre Sévelin 36—a key venue for contemporary dance in Lausanne—and its festival Les Printemps de Sévelin. Over time, the project has evolved through a collaboration with interactive designer and programmer Adrien Kaeser. Together, they have created visuals blending graphic design and new media.

The visuals are based on video depth recordings of movements, which are reshaped to transform choreography into graphic elements. Close collaboration with resident performers allows them to capture their bodies in motion directly. Scanned during rehearsals, these images are used to create animations and then translated into printed matter such as posters, booklets and flyers. This project is part of broader, ongoing research on archiving movement. It evolves with technological advancements, where technique becomes an active part of the creative process, blurring the line between tool and designer.
