Voices of water (2023)

underwater performance as a sensory journey and an intimate dialogue with water

the moment when reality surpasses our darkest fears. what do we do when our worst fears, long warned against, come to pass? we often dismiss these possibilities as exaggerations, believing they could never happen. we raise alarm bells in the hope of being proven wrong, that the fear will remain unfounded. yet one day, we wake up, and it’s real. nothing can fully prepare us for this moment, except being part of those already taking action, carried forward by the momentum of collective effort

voces del agua is a reflection. if water had a voice, what would it say? in the response, we create space for it in our collective effort to speak through us. we tap into our primal beings, reaching back to our ancestors who emerged from the water, to the womb where we first heard its rhythm. water, the source of all creation, inspires us to speak truth—loudly, boldly, without effort. we let ourselves fall, merging back into her, returning to our origin. In that space, we recognize that our power stems from the humble inspiration water provides
