Noche Barroca

Premier on OCTUBRE 27th at Museo Universidad de Navarra, in Pamplona (ES).

A performance where improvisation marks the point of union between three dancers, and baroque music is the common thread and the main reason for this friendly encounter.

Noche Barroca is a collaborative project conceived by Marta Coronado in which the performer and choreographer share the stage with dancers of different ages and artistic paths. This time, the guests are Laura Aris (1977) and Clarissa Costagliola (1997). Each performer will bring her vision of movement giving rise to a conversation and sharing where the individual dance language is represented.

Premier of Geometry of Breath

Zagreb Dance Company/ ZKM & Laura Arís Álvarez

I'm in the postpartum mood...still echoing the intensity of the last few weeks, grateful for the human and artistic encounters and blissful to have opportunities to create my own stage work.
Long live to Geometry of Breath!

"The final piece that they showed to the Zagreb audience can be "read" on countless different levels, from the fact that geometry is literally present in everything, which is a clear reminded of the light created by Saša Fistrić all the way to which human emotions intertwine and melt, which is excellently shown by the stage use of costumes of the dancers, the costume designer Ana Fucijaš created hoodies in which two moving bodies fit at the same time. And just like in dramatic performances, for which the old Chekhov rule applies, "the gun that hangs on the wall in the first act must fire in the last”, here too, the stones that the dancer throws on the stage in the first scene of the work at its end offers interesting scenes in which the arrangement of the stones that the dancers place around the stage recalls rows of soldiers, but also children in a joyful procession of flowers, showing that everything in life is limited by the way we humans use it, just as the associations to what we see are conditioned by our experiences, but also by the moment in which we live."

We are nature, our fingertips pointing towards portals of the spiritual, the incorporeal, the infinite.

We are the collective body, an ancient body, a heavenly body.

We are permeable. Eternally becoming.

We are.

We are together now, creating a new code, a cryptic, spontaneous and absolutely necessary code. The perpetual movement and the ever-connecting energy oscillates, rises, and falls...It expands and contracts, flows, curls, collides.

Scientific data has become the catalyst for extending the habits of the imagination into poetic realms. Modern science tells us of an extraordinary range of interrelationships. Now more than ever, it is clear that we are parts of a whole. We cannot ignore that the sea around us is the same, and our foundations are shared. As far as long as there is an Us.

«What do you contain? The Dead. Time. The light patterns of millennia. The expanding universe opening up in your gut. Seven metres of intestines loaded with stars (…) We are the beginning. We are before time».

—Jeanette Winterson (Gut Symmetries,1999:02).
