In 2026, Dance Reflections by Van Cleef & Arpels Festival presents Sol Invictus by Hervé Koubi in collaboration with The Joyce Theater. Dance Reflections is also supporting The Wallis for the presentation of Sol Invictus by Hervé Koubi.

Named after the “unconquered Sun” deity, Sol Invictus upholds love as the guarantor of peace, that despite fracture, communion emerges as humanity’s saving grace. Hervé Koubi explains, “I want to talk about light, solidarity, and those bonds that unite us”.

Sol invictus invites a diverse world onto the stage, utilizing liberated expression to create a narrative that transcends boundaries, aesthetics, languages, and styles. The stage is a playground of possibilities, embracing a dance that emanates from the heart, mouth, hips, and feet.
