A recurring gesture permeates the performances of the Catalan choreographer: the act of striking, of hammering. In R-A-U-X-A, she pushes this obsession to its limits on her own whilst probing what this gesture encompasses in terms of symbolism, ancient memory, or archaic recurrences... Very quickly, spectators are transported beyond what they see: the movement opens up sensory dimensions and resonates with invisible forces.
Aina Alegre’s precise and fusional interaction with light, space and sound, her intriguing presence and the framed wildness of her movement causes the air around her to vibrate. Pushing, bowing, suspended halts, fluidity, rhythm, we are taken into an organic, architectural and engaging journey that is an invitation to travel.
