CABRAQIMERA

Stage piece for a skating quartet addressing a physical and technological contemporaneity.

Based on speed sports, a space organizational system is created in order to establish a set of codes for occupation, interceptions and encounters.

The plastic and hypnotic dimension of the gesture is evidenced by an autonomous light dispositive that reveals negative and positive spaces, projecting the body to an extreme otherness and opening the ground for fiction.
