Wasteland Photos © Augusto Cabrita António Cabrita and São Castro Production Vo’Arte 2012 Wasteland is a duet. Begins as a physical intervention of a body in another and an awareness of two bodies in the same space. We’ve started to see the expressive, never ending language of the body, becoming avoided, transforming itself in a ‘dumpster’ territory where the body is easily abandoned and forgotten. We gave ourselves the responsibility to create concurrency and tune between two bodies that can easily dive into physical confrontation. We challenge ourselves trying to remember again the pleasure of discovering where the creative body takes part on the game of the creative process. We found a body becoming a instrument of abstract speech and the process becoming a poetic unfolding of the body. Photo © Augusto Cabrita SYNOPSIS is fascinated by any extension of himself in any other material besides himself. A collection of stories and moments in the organizing and configuring process of reality extended to the imaginary, the physicality of ideas. To conquer the territory with the body The body becomes the territory. Is a project of artistic collaboration between the two dancers António Cabrita and São Castro, in which they propose an interaction of interests and creative materials such as movement, image and sound. Photos @ Teatro das Figuras This is our territory ... devastated, apocalyptic, fertile. What happens when we think that we don’t have anything to say, nothing to see. How does our body react, facing a hostile space and a physical emptiness of an individual who Photos © Rui Carlos Mateus António Cabrita has a degree in dance by the Escola Superior de Dança in Lisbon , was formed in the the National Conservatoire Dance School, he also studied dance at the Joffrey Ballet School in NY, cinema at the New York Film Academy, and studied advertising at Restart.
