Realmente ahora no ya no
Realmente ahora no ya no despliega escénicamente una publicación a través de la voz, el movimiento y los fantasmas del paisaje. Lo que sucede durante la obra tuvo lugar hace tiempo en otro(s) lugar(es) y con otras personas.
A través de este proyecto exploramos las nociones de relato, invisibilidad, expectativa y cómo cuestionamos la autoría de nuestro propio trabajo. Es una renegociación del deseo de narrar y de hacerlo a través de otras voces. Una invitación a escuchar, una secuencia sonora, restos de una hoguera, fragmentos de una conversación entre M, L, N, F, A, L y O.
Durante nuestra estancia en La Caldera llevaremos a cabo una residencia técnica del proyecto junto a nuestra partner in crime Laura Iturralde. Llevamos mucho tiempo manoseando estos materiales. En La Caldera seguiremos amasando realmente ahora no ya no, imaginando cómo sería compartirla con un público.
