Press and reviews
Entropy
"The young artist's collective MorphoDidius has a unique vision of the world. They look through big, curious eyes, hypersensitive to the surrealistic nuances of reality."
– Mirjam van der Linden, Volkskrant
"With Entropy, MorphoDidius defines themselves as an interesting new player in contemporary dance."
– Francine van der Wiel, Het Parool
"the trio seems to have crawled directly out of a surrealistic painting"
– Sander Hiskemuller, Trouw
"What really makes Entropy interesting is its conception. The four members of MorphoDidius succeed in creating an intangible atmosphere which is not always exciting but does have impact."
– Ingrid van Frankenhuyzen, NRC Handelsblad
Mensa Secunda
"Isabel Ariel, Nicolas Delamotte Legrand en Benjamin Petitjean (choreographer) from MorphoDidius are three strong personalities on the stage and are absolutely exciting to watch. The collective has a very original movement language, wherein a classic tone and whimsical tight torsos alternate with each other. Arched bodies and distorted limbs also reach through space beautifully."
– Mieke de Bont, Rotterdams Dagblad
Voyeur, Voyou, Voyant
"MorphoDidius places a firm signature with 'Voyeur, Voyou, Voyant'. This almost hallucinating mix of dance, image and sound is tightly directed. The beginning and end are unexpected and set your senses on sharp. [...] Frozen poses deliver beautiful images. If the prose-poems of Arthur Rimbaud are inspiration for all this, then literature will bring this group many possibilities."
– Mieke de Bont, Rotterdams Dagblad, 8 February 2003.
"MorphoDidius ... provides for science fiction of tight dance in a wash of flowing colours and intangible sounds."
– Mirjam van der Linden, de Volkskrant 22 April 2003
Chemical Wedding
"Chemical Wedding opened with a great white flash ... a choreography which burns itself on the retina of the spectator."
– Aachene Zeitung 2 April 2001
"The high point of the evening was Chemical Wedding ... movement, image, sound, language and writing form a synergetic unit to which all senses respond ... the dancers Isabel Ariel and Benjamin Petitjean craft electrifying expression for the magical connection of humans and machine."
– Aachener Nachrichten 2 April 2001
