Sinopsis

Orion is a choreographic formula, a theorem of dance, constructed from some of the explanations that modern science has given of reality.

The work is inspired by some of the scientific ideas of our age: the Big Bang, Darwin’s evolution of the species, cognitive neurosciences and other scientific notions that are changing our perception of reality and of ourselves.

This is a flexible and stimulating context in which to search for movements and ideas that offer us the opportunity to embrace a wide range of codes and qualities.

The dancers are the ultimate protagonists in this choreographic frieze.
