LA ORACIÓN
//2015
A work that brings together religious solemnity and flamenco fervour with contemporary visual language.
La Oración delves into the search for spiritual transformation and the human struggle with transcendent aspirations and doubts. On stage, ancestral performance traditions coexist with new technologies in a staging where live music with deep historical roots and the symbolism of a choir with timeless, almost anachronistic Greek reminiscences intertwine, accompanying each individual’s path toward their own spiritual illumination.
“An optical fascination, a visual plasticity that takes over the stage.”
Javier Villán. El Mundo
“A filming of such quality that it belongs more to a piece of video art by Bill Viola.”
Ignacio Suárez-Zuloaga/España Fascinante
