"Le dessin dansé" Project
2005 / 2006
Creation of dance piece "le dessin dansé", in collaboration with italian dancer Irene SPOSETTI.
Improvisation dance piece, designed to relate painting and dance. Started as a commission from Àrea dance school, in Barcelona.
The versatile format ot this piece, makes it easily adaptable to many diverse environments.
Initially thought to being interpreted by a single dancer, incorporating another dancer, as Kastura Kan, butoh master, provides the piece bigger depth and wider contrast.

"Ríos de luz" ("Rivers of light") Project:
Interbeing is a concept of unity, of existing with the other.
We usually associate the water flow of rivers with the events flow of our own lives. River of light is for me a metaphor of our existence, and I want to show the never ending connection of our individual existences with other beings existence, in a form of a visual mantra.
Original idea of "Rivers of Light" performance, and video script.
Video "Rivers of light":
Loop.
Two differently coloured rivers of light are tracing a sinuous path, while flowing in oppossed directions. They shine brightly. A seated figure on each river of light, bends to fetch with both hands a bit of water, and delicately turns to settle it on her own river. Both figures sincronize their movements in a smooth flow.
They repeat this circular movement on and on.
