Lutum offers a raw, organic and digital stage experience that unfolds under the gaze of the spectators, through a circus body that interacts with umbrellas, balloons, cameras and video projections. Starting from the anus — a penetrable territory vulnerable to sexual violence outside societal norms —  the work aims to touch on discrimination, wounds and fears, as well as luck, alliances and beauty. The audience is invited to contemplate the fragility and metamorphosis of the body, revealing how the concept of death, linked to the idea of illness, maintains an analogous — and anal — connection with sexuality and the gender questioning.  — Arrel Guevara
