    Dance Lab + Perfomance in Rural Turkey

    In Search of our Lost Body

    a body without language, an unborn body.

    A metaphorical body floating in a liquid, sensing sensations, sounds, tastes, unaware that the place where he is, it is called a mother.
    How to get back to this mother of origins, which brings back to the metaphor of a generous, and mythical mother Earth.


    What the Earth teaches us?


    In Mugla we will take advantage of the nature,

    its vibrations and oscillations between kindnessor cruelty, neither madness nor wisdom, mixing excess and scarcity
    The Earth has tricks to survive.

    How do we survive as a human species? Through impulses of Eros and Thanatos, through our animal, vegetal and mineral bodies, with and without language.

    When the creature abandons chaos,

    Last Memory before the world ended,

    Closer to my undisclosed desire,

    Medea Fiam,

    The world, stone has fallen...

    Drop

    Master Missille

    A hole in my core

    Something lost forever

    The skin of the world are gatherings and improvisations in unexpected places: museums, mountains,

    The body: this almost human are residencies in art schools and universities: Osaka , Paris, São Paulo.

     

     

    Butoh dance opens up uncharted territories, in imaginary, spirit and body. Movement comes from the inner states, perceptions and images.

    Tatsumi Hijikata and Kazuo Ohno are the founders of the artistic movement in Japan.
