SOMBRAS QUE SE ALARGAN.....

Directed and performed together with Hugo Mastrolorenzo

Dress without a body, as an empty body, like a body with out a life seen from outside by the

bodies that gave life to that life. Unfolded.Seeing and experiencing the real picture of what was and what lies.Reproach indirect sermons, warm pads with pins…

Dropping just to see if the other responds ... movement, suiciding association , regiment of salvation.

The need to attend the requiem, to grab the earth ... to know that is resting in peace...
