LAS SILLAS
Museums and alternative venues 20'
Two characters in their chairs and a silent dialogue that evolves through gesture. Las Sillas is the initial section of the complete work so called Argh!, premiered on December 2014 at Kurtzio Kultur Etxea in Sopela. Revisiting these physical materials has led us to question and expand their time, filling it with detail. This work develops back and forward through time, unfolding in a fragmented sound space whilst also playing with silence. Thus, the rhythmic arrangement of the movement and its sonority have shaped the choreography.
