MASA
Laura Ríos (CU)
Title Masa (Massa) | Video | Piece Length 27 min, Loop
Espaço da Penha | 20 and 21 June | From 18h00
Synopsis
All matter leaves a trace, a mark in the space. It is a trace that can be evident, abstract or even become imperceptible. Nevertheless, it is present, it inhabits and leaves a legacy. It’s a result of work, steps, thoughts, the life cycle, the weight (energy and transcendence) of the body.
MASA is an open trajectory that searches to leave traces through the relationship between material and body. From within the action, the improvised and intuitive movement explores the subtle and concrete possibilities of marking the mud, offering ways to re-dimension the body and its image.
