Experiencing Interruptions?

Faceless

This work arises from the desire to experiment with the potential of creative expression through dance and technology. To develop it, we carried out a series of physical movement laboratories, telematic ones, software editing and transmedia experimentation during 2019, a time of uncertainty, psychological agitation caused by temporary closures, unemployment, social isolation and disorder. With this project, we hope that our reflections on anxiety and depression will be recognized and transformed into something that we can share with others. Rather than trying to get rid of this, we consider them opportunities to reevaluate and rebuild our understanding of reality.

Director Statement

Our work is based on interdisciplinary collaborations. We believe in the arts as a single entity and as a means of dialogue between various creative individuals. We seek merging of the physical and virtual universes from an emotional and sensitive sense of our body & mind.
