In her solo, Angela Guerreiro transforms into an androgynous being with abrupt changes of nature. Foreign bodies and memories that she has absorbed and recorded in her physical memory are projected onto her body as a screen.
A few distinctive movements coalesce to form figures of uncertain origin: familiar or observed people, characters out of video clips, computer simulations or dreams?
In a time when the utopia of an authentic identity and physicality has faded, the dancer’s body produces bizarre creatures – humorous and strange – memories and figures both powerful and broken; together these create a new, artificial, but also very lively body.
Linked to the music, rhythmically interconnected with the compositions of Hendrik Lorenzen, the figure of Angela Guerreiro reflects the power and confusion of a radically changing world.
