Resonant + KA-YI-HA

CICLO MIRADAS_ Resonant de Irina Sbaglia y Sebastián García Ferro + KA-YI-HA de Los Moñekos

#POETICA DE LA IMAGEN #COMPOSICIÓN EN TIEMPO REAL

Resonant es un proyecto de Irina Sbaglia y Sebastián García Ferro en colaboración con un equipo de artistas con un proyecto de Irina Sbaglia y Sebastián García Ferro en colaboración con un equipo de artistas con el que colaboran desde hace varios años y que consta de un dispositivo escénico de danza contemporánea basado en la composición en tiempo real e improvisación.

Resonant se basa en la construcción de imágenes y situaciones en un espacio escénico y cada espacio plantea una gramática de movimiento distinta. Dichas instancias producen una poética que resuena en la intimidad de los cuerpos que lo habitan y que articula de diversas maneras las múltiples dinámicas de relaciones. De allí emergen elecciones y movimientos de los intérpretes que a través de su presencia y fisicalidad, van tejiendo una trama que cada vez es desplegada de una manera distinta.

#HUMOR Y SURREALISMO #MOVIMIENTO Y TEATRO FÍSICO

KA-YI-HA es un espectáculo de danza y música en directo, que da vueltas entorno al tema de los duelos, los dúos, el amor y el odio. En clave cómica pasa por el amor y la procreación de unas aves zarpaces del trópico meridional sur, por el enfrentamiento de dos rivales en un ring, por la pasión desenfrenada y aturdidora de dos personas que no saben si se quieren o se detestan, al desconcierto de la llegada de una tercera persona. Esta tercera en discordia es un músico en directo, loco, hay que decirlo, que hace de maestro de ceremonias, de narrador, de provocador del juicio final, y de verdugo.

...¿ya saben por quién hacen sus apuestas...?
