(Calliope) I invented dance to disguise myself
Inspired in the Greek Mythology, Calliope, one of the nine muses, is looking for her humanity, having stumbled upon grief, liberation, flesh, desire, support and ultimately redemption. Through this visual journey, there is a bridge being crossed, powerfully charged by the risk that each metamorphosis has. This piece is a reflection of the tribulations humans face, whether as letting go, as connecting with the other, as accepting their fate or overcoming it.
Through the frenetic and hypnotic electronic music where shadows are casted there is a body in constant motion that invites the audience to this universe. When there is nothing more to grasp, where will our hands go? What will be left of us in the place we once succumbed to? And what will happen when after it all we face the light?
This performance encourages a personal reflection to each member of the audience about the relationship with redemption, either as resistance, transcendence or projection.
"I invented dancing to disguise myself.
Drunk with solitude, I wanted to live.
And I covered the nakedness of my soul with gestures
Because I was similar to the landscapes waiting
And no one could understand me." Sophia Mello Breyner
Artist: Joana Ruela
