Filia et fobia

La Taimada’s latest production once again places us in an act of voyeurism, an indisputably human act, in which the bodies of the two dancers, Clio Van Kerm dressed in PPE, and Mariona Moranta completely naked, intertwine and allow us to share in the desire of detachment about flesh. This piece won first prize at the Choreography Competition of Madrid

La Taimada is a dance and new performance formats company that explores bodily expression and movement, directed by Olga Álvarez and Jordi Cabestany. Based in Catalonia since 2004, the company has authored productions such as El octavo día, Lo.li.ta, Crash and L’Infern. Its ideas and its work come from a simple, dark place. They work on human vulnerability, pursuing and presenting two concepts as contrasting as they are familiar: monstrousness and beauty.
