How to get rid of a body. Mimesis

HYBRID Festival | DOCK 11

Production Details / Press Releases

Trying to make a body disappear paradoxically makes it the center of attention, transforming it into a creature between animal and vegetal, a forgotten body covered in moss, a shapeshifting vision in green. A series of fascinating and unsettling transformations that eventually leaves nothing but a body reminded of its material existence and its own mortality.

HYBRID Festival 2020 presented by CBC – Christine Bonansea Company | cbcdance.com
HYBRID FESTIVAL is a week of multidisciplinary and multicultural performances, reuniting international and local productions for an exceptional opportunity of exchange and celebration during the pandemic restrictions time.

Reflecting the consequences of isolation, confinement and economic struggle; the dismantling recent events and forward thrust of time; the artistic platform of exchange, performance and collaboration will revive the potential of creative acts that generate positive responses, understanding and change.

Bridging community and cultures, the HYBRID Festival will create an immersive experience focused on artistic creativity, diversity, solidarity, offering the possibility to the artists and the public to be in the theater space again.
