flesh & sound

Starting from the study of pre-Hispanic instruments, complemented with contemporary instruments and digital technology, Paco Ziel and Bernardo Alvarado Rojas create a series of sound and body vibrations in real time. These are exercises to access altered states of consciousness, as well as to discover bridges across time. Their goal is to bring echoes from the past to the present and give them new life and movement, while exploring the relationship between dance and music to create a full integration of the two. Flesh & Sound is an act of courage, effort, complicity and brotherhood between the artists, ready to be reborn without defining themselves at the moment of the performance, and reflecting themselves in each other.

The piece is designed for a central stage (360 degrees) and is ideal for museums, galleries, black boxes and alternative spaces (indoor or outdoor), but can be presented in a traditional stage à l'italienne. It is preceded by a visual arts and soundscape  installation.
