Performances

“Bajo el Gesto” is a ritual of personal liberation that seeks to become collective. An artistic action that embodies the struggle against the weight of perfection, self-demand and constant judgement.

Over 49 slabs of raw clay laid out on the Plaza del Sol (Gràcia, Barcelona), the body is allowed to act without thinking: to touch, mark, erase, stay still, roll, strike, play.

The performance begins with an intimate gesture by Mestrella, but then opens to anyone who wants to experience and leave behind the thoughts that hold us back. To create without demands, without expectations, without asking for permission.

Beneath the gesture, we stop being ideas. And we begin to be action. If you want, come in. The clay is waiting.

impart:impartir endeavours to embark onto the adventure of world-building from a language-focused lens, building an ecosystem in the form of virtual and physical research and responses that draws inspiration from the solarpunk movement.

impart:impartir aspires to build a world that bridges the gaps of feelings and, when language fails to articulate, to create a world of language that betters communication. MaggZ and Lili are curious to investigate and unpack what such a world would be through the lens of audio-visual, body and somatics, as well as physical sculpture and installations.

Some provocations are (not limited to):

• How to nourish a feeling-based language?
• What is the gap between language and feelings?
• What's the ecosystem of body, language and feelings?
