Bosque/Woods is a piece that serves as an artistic appeal to environmental awareness. It is a research project that brings together dance and visual arts to create a unique landscape in the cities, exploring the idea of impermanence and instability of the body, nature, climate, and collective practices. It is a large-scale outdoor performance that involves the local community to make a strong and impactful statement. Upside down, the body inverts the space and questions time. How long can the body resist? How long can the forest resist?
