Synopsis
A thought about time, pause and movement. An attempt to catch instants, to manually freeze the present. Travelling back to the beginnings of cinema, where the succession of photographic instants create the illusion of movement. Gestural strokes that remind us of silent movies.
The piece draws a route fragmented in simulated photographies in order to observe the place that composed them. These places become places in themselves, not a place of transit. The light, as an element of the set, acquires a presence of equal importance as the body.

Olatz de Andres-en Yo soy una cosa que dura segundos-n koreografoak oso era interesgarrian aztertzen ditu mugimenduaren eta denboraren arteko erlazioak, zeluloide proiekzioen printzipio bera erabiliz. Xede horrekin, mugimendua, une argi eta ilunekin zatikatzen eta deskonposatzen du eta, beranduago, mugimendu segida laburrak errepikatzen ditu Satie-ren musika musika misteriotsu eta poetikoak lagunduta. Aurreko lanean bezala, oso interesgarriak izan dira geldotasun uneak, eta mugimendu pasarteetan harrapatuta geratu gara Olatzen estilo leun, elegante, malgu eta zehatzarekin.
