The project’s new title HURLULA is a portmanteau combining the French verbs “hurler” (in English, “hurl”) and “hululer,” which refers to the howls and shrieks of nocturnal animals. As an exploration of a sound that emerges from a primal instinct, HURLULA is the expression of an emotional journey into the depths of the human body. Developed under the mentorship of Sofia Jernberg, the piece is conceived as an intimate encounter, yet characterized by its ecstatic and lunar mood. “It will be a liberating moment from the shackles of beauty and feminine decorum,” says Détraz.
