AN ADVENTURE OF MATTER 

Here everything has holes and everything makes holes. Everything is for crossing, leaving or entering, for falling into, lingering, disappearing. For looking and seeing the other side: black, skin, green, patterned, hairy. A continuous adventure of matter, with no transition: BURACO fits a world.

BURACO came from a desire to share with a young audience other possible relational logics, opening up space for an adventure involving our senses and sensitivity. BURACO explores the choreographic possibilities of being and moving a body-matter (a body that is matter: flesh, bones, muscles, fluids, hair, holes...) in contact/collision with other matter.

The hole is understood here as a relation: between inside and outside the body, between different bodies, between different materials. Holes exist in the movement, in movement, between movements, between choreographies. Holes are gaps, leaks, passages to different places; holes are portals to other worlds.

BURACO is a hole for children and adults.
