‘’How does the body experience the theme of “Invisible power” (between the body & mind, rational & emotional), but not as contradiction’s forces but as one unity?’’

Marta Reig Torres  will be working together with dancer Angelina Deck and light designer Ellen KnopsOne is the second part of a trilogy on which Marta Reig Torres has been working on, titled The Body Minds. Both One and The Body Works were researched and created in CLOUD/Danslab. During this residency, Marta would like to retake the solo One; brainstorm all the information from the previous two works and generate new ideas for the following and future last part of the trilogy called Rooted.

Marta has been working for some time with the theme “Invisible power”. In this short solo she wants to experience the theme through her own body.  To start again from the solo, is looking back at the piece, and material she already has in order to re-start and continue the process that will lead her to the last and final part of this trilogy, which she will do in the near future.
