Martin Chaix makes ballets across the full span of the form, reinterpreting classical repertoire, creating new works, and making abstract pieces where the score is the only architecture.

By questioning each work through its music, its story and its conventions, he uncovers what contemporaneity is intrinsic to the original and what the contemporary body, in its poetic and politic sense, exposes. A decade of rigorous inquiry, recognised by a Benois de la Danse nomination in 2024 and commissions from major European and international institutions.

His ballets leave the audience where the works themselves originated, in the unresolved space of our common humanity.
