A 60-minute dance piece for 6 dancers and a live musician.
The cold moves into our bodies. It creeps under the skin, into the bones and into the marrow. Expels warmth, love, resonance. Prelude to the Cold is the name of the latest production by Cooperativa Maura Morales, a prelude to the cooling of the human, the female body. A coldness that particularly freezes in the “contactless time” of our present. “In this kind of life that the pandemic demands of us, everything that is warm and soft disappears. Disciplining, effectiveness and standardisation are the cold imperatives of our time.” (Maura Morales)
