Dancing at the Lady Fest / Brussels

Last June we were invited to perform at the 5th edition of the event “Baragouine” organized by the amazing team of the Lady Fest BXL, a Transdisciplinary & Inclusive Feminist Festival in Bruxelles.

The Baragouine parties are organized in financial support to the future LadyFest (March 2019) where we will be programmed in avant premier with our new piece.

For this last Baragouine, funny called “Baragouine se tape des barres” and located at the new Brussel’s lesbian bar Mothers & Daughters (city center) we showed a pole dance and contemporary dance duo inspired in the last piece Migrations  with a new touch of mouvements and acrobatics.
Also a solo by our great Nathalie Lennoir and an opening night with a pole dance workshop for the most intrepid and curious. We felt very wrapped up by the public, warm and enthusiastic.

Happy to come back in March. For the next, we will continue in this research line bringing dance towards new horizons.
See you soon and have a nice summer time!

 

Jury at [C]Screen Screendance Spring 2018

[C]Screen Festival is a humble festival happening in Cerdanyola del Vallès (close to Barcelona). The young organiser, Eva Campos Suárez, was working some years ago in, back then, La Ignorancia desk with me. After finishing her internship, she decided to go back to Spain and start a screendance festival to boost her town. And she did it, she is counts already with three editions. This year her festival received almost 200 screendance shortfilms!

At her first edition in 2016, my films Europe Endless and Lost Archive were special guests into her program and this year she asked me to be part of the selection jury. I had a very positive experience!

The festival will start the 25th April until 5th May, so if you are around Barcelona, go enjoy it!

Soon she will publish an interview she made me and I will link it here.

Success in Cine Rev[b]elado #2

Last 14th February, the complete version of Europe Endless was presented in the CA2M museum (Centro de Arte 2 de Mayo) of Madrid, in the Cine Rev[b]elado #2 program (organised by Playtime Audiovisuales).

We are proud to say that the performance was a big success. It lasted more or less an hour and the room was so full of people that part of them had to be standing up. We had positive reactions and the public left wanting to know more about Europe Endless and La Ignorancia.

Here we show you some photos taken by María Eugenia Serrano Díez the same day.
