12th ANNIVERSARY OF THE 5TH READING
BLINDNESS ESSAY
CREATED BY NÉLIA PINHEIRO
CDCE | CONTEMPORARY DANCE COMPANY OF ÉVORA
The creation, ENSAIO SOBRE A CEGUEIRA (about blindness), inspired by José Saramago’s work with the same title, is the culmination of a choreographic experimentation journey around human behaviour in situations of crisis and violence.
The inner conflicts, fear, individualism as a natural way of existing, the ethical and moral questions associated with behaviour in society, list the behavioural nature of the performers. On stage, human nature is presented in a raw, unemotional way.
With a format close to an artistic installation, the creation presents an experimental language, both visually and in terms of the positioning of the body in the dance and in the scene.
Performance included in the commemorations of the Centenary of Birth of José Saramago (1922-2022)
Performance as part of the 12th Anniversary of the 5ªs de Leitura
