‘Trying to say what’

Specializing in rope and aerial silks, Gaia Panero is currently in the process of creating the piece ‘Trying to Say What’. The research she seeks to develop has started as a physical and technical research around the discipline of rope, transforming it into an investigation into the possible relationships between the rope, the artist’s body and the space that hosts them.

From this first research, the need has arisen to create a structure that is at the same time performance space and art installation, where circus art interacts with architecture. It will be a tensegrity structure, a name derived from the words “tension” and “integrity” and will be sustained by opposing forces.

LP (Long Play)

A visual and acoustical underworld hidden behind the mask of everyday life; an escape gate through which our dreams and fears pass. A millennial temple in which we can celebrate the error; open a gap of human fragility. Wires, software, high-heeled shoes and a beard. The bodies strain under tricks of light and sound, political speeches, cellphones and pop icons. On the eve of the apocalypse, Long Play is a cry of resistance that pays tribute to the generation of the new millennium.

Catalina Aguayo and Alejandro DutraWe create an authentic discourse, highlighting the fragility of bodies, driven by essential states. They nurture themselves from the circus but also from many other things: electronic music, Xavier Dolan’s movies, Vivienne Westwood’s costumes…

‘La punta del meu nas’

This collective was born from the need to come together as a community to create, develop as artists and be able to investigate the discipline of hand-to-hand. With this new work, they return to their origins to reconstruct a common memory.

Six bodies in play, six worlds. Drifting towards a joint and shared reality. We take care of each other, we behave, we slip, we push each other. Hand-to-hand and singing as an opportunity to change everything and invite you to discover our peculiarities at close quarters.
