The body is the creative vehicle for the two artists responsible for this intervention, which shows how people’s compatible thoughts and values can be translated into movement. “We express our emotions through our bodies. The contact comes from the harmony of friendship, complicity and companionship, from looking into each other and seeing yourself”, says performer Luísa Rodrigues.

The instrumental soundtrack, with precise rhythm and suspenseful moments, sets the tone for the performers’ encounter. Everything begins at the base, with the skin in contact with the ground. The bodies then clash and are thrown against each other. The dramaturgy reinforces the artists’ skillful delivery and trust, as well as their elasticity and vigor. The performance moves on to dynamic movements that combine acrobatics, contortionism and dance.

Trained by the National School of Circus of Brazil (Escola Nacional de Circo do Brasil), with previous experience in dance, the two artists rely on the combination of these two artistic languages.
