Träd + Am I what?+Du@l

There are many lives life. What would happen if each day you woke up somewhere in the world, and you lived, one by one, each of those possible lives? With circumstances transformed, they transform the body and soul into hearts that beat to live, fly and transcend the miseries of the world. Because another world is possible where there are no executioners or victims, where power is not above the human and where values and the essence of people are essential.

Du@l> is an arbitrary social construction resulting from the patriarchal organisation and male dominance, formed by a series of values, definitions, beliefs and meanings about being, having to be and not being male, but above all, of their status in relation to women. It is possible to be a man and be scared, tender, charming, weak, peaceful, careful, etc. Two different bodies, two styles, and two forms of movement challenge one another metaphorically thus showing superiority over the other. Feel free to build your own male identity free of gender stereotypes through folk singing with the figure of two roosters.

Durante el viaje, los cuerpos se mueven por el deseo de ser vistos. Líneas. Emerge el ego entre el sudor de la multitud. La vida es un viaje de cuerpos que desean y se mueven. Una voz dice: “ver a secas” como prólogo a una cadena de reacciones... Am I What? es un canto a la individualidad del ser humano frente a la colectividad que trata de engullirlo. El lenguaje de la danza muestra en esta ocasión una profunda reflexión sobre el consumo de cuerpos, de ver cuerpos y de competir por ser el cuerpo más visto.
