Poetry in Motion: Performance Artist Erika Lemay
Beauty, strength and elegance embody Erika Lemay’s incredible performances.
Fluid movement, great delicacy, power, and poise pushing the limits of the human body as she twists and contorts, each move executed with captivating grace, describes the performance style of international artist Erika Lemay, an acclaimed soloist in the Cirque du Soleil. Erika has performed across five continents for private celebrations, films, TV shows, launches, VIPs, celebrities, royal families and world leaders. She has been seen performing in Geneva for the 2014 Salon International de la Haute Horlogerie www.sihh.org on behalf of Cirque du Soleil together with British actor Ewan McGregor. Erika is also attending SIHH as an author, featured in a publication by Jaeger-LeCoultre. Erika states “because poetry doesn’t have to be expressed with words” It most certainly does not as evidenced by her ability to transform movement into an emotional expression that is ever-so poetic. Enjoy this hypnotic performance piece entitled “Hope” as Erika moves to the beautiful cello sounds of Maxim Beitan.
