cercle de fades

With the support of Centre d’Arts Santa Mònica, Art Nou Festival, Espronceda Institute of Art and Culture and University of Barcelona.

alguna cosa ha estat dita (something has been said) is the result of a collective process of experimentation with the word, the voice and the body to find a distinctive method of communication that does without verbal language. Rhythmic syllables, truncated sentences and incomprehensible words reveal an attempt to verbalise something from the very origin, from the most rudimentary forms of articulation. The performance presents an experimental journey towards a possible beginning of language, in an attempt to reclaim an ancestral time in the present.
