Design Statement
From the premise of what the creative process alone is and its results, four performers improvise, alone on stage, wearing eight different outfits. The costumes are designed by costume designers, graphic designers and plastics artists. In order to challenge and confront them on stage, because they do not rehearse with them and perhaps they do not know them, the plastic design becomes movement, sound and light in the spectator’s eye, while the dancers has the interpretive challenges that produce the costume’s interaction and feedback with light and video programming along with live music, resulting in a performance where the sum of loneliness generates a creative whirlwind .
