    CONMOCIoN [Dance VIDEO Project]

    CONMOCIoN was made as part of ‘Grief for a time that once was’, a videographic journey of the seven stages of mourning, conceived and realized by Piedad Albarracin Seique.

    It is a collection of 7 short films, show videos, images, sounds, texts collected by artists to document and reflect on the feelings caused by isolation, and positions in relation to each stage or concept explored by each artist.

    CONMOCIÓN / SHOCK
    The beginning of the journey, everything is new, we have just heard … The feeling of deep sorrow that shakes the spirit of that person is perceived, have you heard it? especially until you awaken compassion or the urge to cry … What is it? How is it possible?

    Have you seen how it has become? No, it’s not that she just realised it … Violent and abrupt alteration …
    What do you mean we can’t do anything but wait … wait for what? What’s going on?
    Maybe if we wait a little longer, we’ll escape … I’m not sure I can stay still, how about you? Have you heard something?

    Electra Untitled - physical theatre & dance project (2023)

    Electra Untitled is a feminist/queer adaptation of the greek tragedy of Sophocles; Electra. Dance, puppetry and visual storytelling reconstruct Electra’s story, which she owns and rewrites through the lens of female gaze. Electra becomes a modern antihero; tangled in violence that runs for generations of patriarchal suppression.

    The performers transform the stage to retell the ancient myth and address Electra’s archetype to its core researching a feminist re-looking of the character and the tragedy as a whole. Electra Untitled adds a modern twist to an old narrative and brings forward the role of women who provoke change in times of hostility and dissolution.
