DEADLOCK
Safe in the passage, lost in a fantasy, the dancer gives up her self and blends with her ghost. Plural in her core, lonely layer of several, flat surface with depth, reflection of a projection; human, no longer only human, she travels the narrow route lingering between what is perceived as real and what we presume imaginary.
DEADLOCK is an essay on trans-morphic dancing, and a flight into the unruly. A reckless, utterly precise piece of choreography, serially ordered, performatively embodied.

flat haze
if you want to think, or dance for that matter, you better find the proper place for thinking, and for dancing
too much light might be disturbing, wide open views distracting
flat haze is a place of contemplation; foreign to the most, gentle as a distant embrace. It promotes the thin threading of choreography and suggests that partial sight and unmarked stillness are the best conditions of dancing, and plain togetherness.

SILVER
what if silver is the color of dancing?
what if dancing is nothing but a missing child,
silver coated and unlawfully reproduced?
SILVER is a series of images, courted and confirmed. Simple in both form and strategy, it is nothing but a frame for unexpected outfalls, an open window to serendipity. A playground in awe of the complexity of its own game.

The Bench
Some dudes take a walk in the park.
Then linger a bench and ponder over a destiny.
In summer 2020, Cristina wrote a text on the features of dancing, and the power games that condition the feminine. The text, entitled The Bench and the Parts, eventually turned into the script for a dancing piece, named The Bench.
