Ya las paredes no son lo mismo, ahora veo la arquitectura diferente, como una posibilidad de abordarla y saber que puede decirme el cuerpo suspendido en ella.

The walls are no longer the same, now I see different architecture, as an opportunity to approach it and know what the body suspended in it can tell me.

I will describe a descent - If you want you can visualize the story, as an exercise in abstraction - You are on the edge, sitting in a place where you could affirm that you cannot advance, because there is a void, and you only see a void because you are afraid. But when you spend a lot of time with fear you learn to listen to it. Then the agreements between the fears and you begin and you begin to see the emptiness as part of the whole as well.

Then you turn and face the wall you suspend yourself, in the empty companion, now you have to decide if that wall you are facing does not let you do anything or you allow yourself to dance on it and that is the greatest satisfaction, but at this distance the body feels heavy and height appears and its interference in the equation, you start to go down and the body becomes lighter, less heavy, weightless, you can feel you fly, now you are also part of the whole. And in that place the dance is expressed in the body

–Ya pueden salir de la visualización–/ –You can exit the visualization–

Para poder abordar un espacio debemos cumplir con altos protocolos de seguridad en altura, para eso estamos certificados por la compañía “COSSNA” ellos nos adiestraron en rapel, primeros auxilios y muy importante sobre los protocolos de seguridad en altura. También cuenta nuestra experiencia como artistas de circo profesionales, así que chicos no lo hagan en casa.

To be able to approach a space we must comply with high safety protocols at height, for that we are certified by the company "COSSNA" they trained us in abseiling, first aid and very important on safety protocols at height. Our experience as professional circus performers also counts, so guys don't do it at home.

Hicimos las respectivas visitas y en conjunto con el equipo de seguridad del museo localizamos los espacios para el ejercicio, ese día pudimos lograr que nos dieran apenas horas para ensayar en un espacio nuevo para nosotros, con superficies diferentes y a una altura de 30mts. Lo cual era un reto para nosotros y un riesgo también, pero seguimos adelante. La partitura de movimiento estaba aprendida, sólo teníamos que acoplarla en el espacio y en el tiempo que nos pedían en el festival.

We made the respective visits and together with the museum's security team we located the spaces for the exercise, that day we were able to give us just hours to rehearse in a new space for us, with different surfaces and at a height of 30mts. Which was a challenge for us and a risk too, but we kept going. The movement score was learned, we just had to dock it in the space and in the time they asked us at the festival.

Decidimos trabajar en una cornisa y en una pared de 30mts de altura. El la cornisa instalamos 4 líneas y como cuerpo un cubo sincronizado de movimiento, trabajamos sobre los impulsos de un ángulo de 60° aproximados, sostenidos de la cintura lo que nos daba una dimensión en diagonal para explorar con el movimiento, en la pequeña exploración que tuvimos (recuerden que fue muy corta) experimentamos de entrada un trabajo entre las fuerzas que genera la cuerda y las destrezas que el cuerpo debe tener para mantener el equilibrio, para investigar está muy interesante pero decidimos aprendernos una frase de movimiento y pulirla para poder presentarla al festival.

We decided to work on a ledge and a 30m high wall. In the cornice we installed 4 lines and as a body a synchronized cube of movement, we worked on the impulses of an angle of approximately 60 °, sustained from the waist which gave us a diagonal dimension to explore with movement, in the small exploration that we had (remember it was very short) we first experienced a work between the forces generated by the rope and the skills the body must have to maintain balance, to investigate it is very interesting but we decided to learn a phrase of movement and polish it to be able to present it to the festival.

En la Pared de 30mts desarrollamos un poco más la puesta en escena y fue el debut de Evelin Mendez dentro de RM Danza. Evelin es artista circense, estudió la licenciatura de Danza y es profesora de telas para niñas, una apasionada de las alturas, su sueño es volar como una guacamaya de colores. Acá el tema era el descenso en sí, no me complique mucho y me dispuse a interpretar el descenso.
Un tránsito fugaz por la verticalidad, cada cuerpo con su trazo presente dibujo una línea en ese espacio y en sincronía un discurso ingrávido.
