Ato Invisível

© Vera Rodrigues - 2012, Buitenwerkplaats

Territories we have never trodden before are at our fingertips. The boundaries between what belongs to us and where we belong tend to change from minute to minute. We form a collective body that belongs to different origins, languages, geographies and nations that continually recompose our ecosystem. Ato invisível reflects the nature of our smallest actions and their effects on the world we live in and invites us to reflect on an ecology of the now with an emphasis on the ephemerality of human existence on earth. The performer's ground and body make up a canvas of the constantly changing landscape and sculpt a third body that is moving. The ground becomes an extension of the body and covers everything. Becoming ground. Turning into earth.
