Stimuli
ABOUT THE PERFORMANCE
“Reality never exists. It is always a point of view, a conditioned look”
(Paulo César Lopes, in Window of Soul”)
Stimuli invites the audience to enter a dark chamber and experience a dance performance in an unconventional and surprising way. Considering that our experience is limited by our senses and constructed internally as a representation of the world, Stimuli is a research about the connection of the individuals with the environment that surrounds them. Using senses other than vision, the two dancers deepen their spatial and sensorial capacity to enter a new dimension of movement and awareness of their counterpart.
