The 3 Duets from Aitana Cordero Vico on Vimeo.

“Manipulate me,

Move me,

Carry me,

Play me…

Make me meaningful and meaningless…

Both now just happening

Deal with my weight and my surrender

Transform me

Affect me

Justify my need of moving with your strength and commitment

Then I will give you the whole responsibility of my presence

I will not move, not triggering you, not seducing you…

I have just decided I will trust you

I will not fight now

Needing you…

I will enjoy loosing the control this time

Minimizing my reactions

Redefining roles

No victim no master

Surviving to number 3”

In this piece 3 dancers moved my body (which was trying to be totally motionless) one by one, repeating 3 times the duet format. The dancers, in charged to move me, seams to be the total responsible of each piece (movement, meaning and time wise), they were articulating my body, choosing my motion, my positions, my grade of exposure, and playing with the different ways how a body (my body) could be read. They (through their strength, curiosity and imagination) justified my need of movement and brought me to places I was never before.

with Daniel Almgren, Anja Muller, Joao Guerreiro and Aitana Cordero.
