Sinopse
For professionals and students at an advanced level in dance or theatre with experience in movement.
In this masterclass I explain the vectors that run through my work as a choreographer and performer. The strong physical component is accompanied by the theoretical contextualisation of my artistic practice. I’ll address the development of a choreographic language from an idea of innerness in conjunction with repetition and duration, favouring the witnessing and accompanying of the inner experience by the audience. I’ll put forward pretexts of theatricality, in the sense of bodies in situation, thus enhancing communicability, along with the abstract nature of movement. – Francisco Camacho
