LA CONDUCTA DE LOS ANIMALES

This is dance/performance art piece that arises from the aforementioned text as queer, hortatory scenic copy, created specifically for Zinegoak in the context of La Fundición, the adaptation of which into a scenic piece explicitly deals with child abuse and mistreatment.

It is a compendium of fragments relating to drums and wildness: the mirror. A meeting of howls in the night. The cave. A swinging rope. A guttural transformation – not predetermined. Animalising the body and shouting. A silence. A face that slips slowly along a stone wall. A spell – a way to exhort the wound that separates us, just at the exact moment that a mob of children brutally attack the chimera in the school playground. The hunt.

This project was supported by Histeria Kolektiboa in 2017.
