CREATION OF THE CINEMATIC DANCE WORK SKINNED AS A MEANS TO BLEND THE DIFFERENT ARTISTIC MEDIUMS THE PERSONA-MAKERS AND DEAL WITH THE COVID-19 MEASURES.

 

Due to Covid-19, many of our scheduled performances were cancelled. In an effort to continue developing artistic work, we decided to create SKINNED.

 

SKINNED became Persona's first collaborative project where we brought together the different artistic disciplines and visions, and where the three Persona creators had equal control over the artistic output. 

 

SKINNED became a 40-minute cinematic dance work, in which two performers embody the inner process that one goes through in the search for oneself. Through physical exploration, they question the usual layers with which one conforms today. Layer by layer, the figures deepen their evolving physical identity and molt into new forms, eventually entering an abstract state of self-awareness.
