L'evento
“One need not be a chamber to be haunted”
The creation has as its source the technique the intertwining of two languages: Aikido and contemporary dance. The methodology based on Aikido as a martial discipline is jointly developed by the actress and aikidoka Belén Bouzas and contemporary dancers Diego M. Buceta and Fran Martínez. Through these languages the piece represents the boundary between pain and love, relationship and isolation, caress and violence. As in Rembrandt's anatomy lesson, the characters lean over the bodies to cross them and examine the material that composes them.
