About
The image of a woman carrying water was the starting point for the process of creating an almost cylindrical form. The body itself appears in the performance as a transporter of water and states. In this working body, we can see the effort to obtain the essentials, in a daily activity that, culturally, is often destined for women and is repeated by them throughout their lives, for the benefit of the community. Thus, water is the central and guiding material of the story, together with the objects needed to collect, store and use it. In an almost cylindrical form, scenography, light, sound and movement take shape in a dynamic construction, reflecting a universe of its own.
Synopsis
uma forma quase cilíndrica materializes almost invisible gestures and states that the body carries in an attempt to preserve life. Walking. Collecting. Carrying. Managing. Using. Solving. Living.
