AM I WHAT?
AM I WHAT? explores the desire to be seen and the consumption of bodies in a competitive world. The piece addresses how people move, desire, and compete for attention in a society that threatens to devour individuality. Amidst the sweat and movement of the crowd, egos emerge. This choreography is a celebration of human uniqueness and a reflection on the dynamics between the individual and the collective.
Elvi Balboa creates artistic proposals for unique public spaces, exploring their spatial, historical, and poetic dimensions. Trained as a dancer and choreographer at the Institut del Teatre, Balboa has collaborated with companies such as Ex-Nihilo and has developed her own language in personal projects. Her first piece as a director, AM I WHAT?, was nominated for Best Street Performance at the Pad Awards. Her latest piece, ANÖA, co-produced by the Centro Coreográfico Galego, will be presented in Barcelona in a site-specific performance at the Sala Apolo.
The performance on March 16 in Sant Cugat is a double program with Cia Laia Santanach.
The performance on March 22 in Sabadell is a triple program with LaCerda and Souldiers.
The two sessions on March 23 at the Espai Corberó in Esplugues are free with prior reservation.
