ÁNIMAS

SYNOPSIS

Remembering and attempting to reconstruct a work from forty years ago has been startling. Who was the person then who is now this one? Thus, I choreograph a dance in tatters, filled with formal gaps and intuitions of a past altered and distorted by the gaze of the present.

Then come the blows of history. The present is a castaway that gathers gestures, rarefied and illuminated, groping towards a narrative that is constantly being made and unmade. Dancing is also another form of babbling.
