SYNC

Atmosphäre

SYNC unfolds within a moment of ceremony: an attempt at unification between distinct embodied forces and two bodies on stage. Two presences embody polarities that coexist and clash: the emotional and the rational, the chaotic and the ordered. Through encounter, repetition, confrontation, and listening, the bodies traverse states of proximity and distance, alignment and misalignment, where synchronicity is not a fixed state but something unstable and constantly negotiated. The piece thus proposes a journey toward mutual recognition, where neither force imposes itself, but rather both are needed to sustain a single, dynamic unity. This performance takes place as part of the contemporary art group show ‘LA PIEL’ (10.06.26 - 20.06.26 in Galería Alegría, Barcelona). The exhibition is organised by the cultural association PUES - Projects, and showcases the works of five visual artists, accompanied by three performances. reflects on the evocative power of looking at the outer layer of the body and how this act involuntarily generates personal narratives steaming from the joint venture of sight and imagination. The skin and the body are proposed as the most immediate visual carriers of meaning as well as both protective and ornamental limits that we use to live, experience and interact. SYNC is performed and choreographed by the dancers Renee Kester and Marta Pajares, with direction and photography by Jonathan Matthey. Ticket: 10,00€ (including 2 beers)
