Upside down as a metaphor for an internal earthquake.
The discovery of the freedom of the body.
Dynamism of the body, the primordial body and animal.
The aware body educated to involuntary chains of life.
At times you might think of a “stranded” body, tired of fighting and more focused on improving the quality of its existence.
She takes her time, listens to her breathing. It is a work exploring, with lightness and delicacy, the maturity of a body that is reaching the staging of the experience that this figure has lived.
