This project is focused on the investigation of the possible choreographic and plastic dimensions of sound. The idea is to create an experience that is close to the phenomenon of synaesthesia, where sound acquires form and plasticity, and the body and objects acquire sonority. Synaesthesia consists of uniting two images or sensations coming from different sensory domains, for example, when we say a squeaky green colour.
Staging what is seen sounding and heard looking. The sound and synaesthetic plastic capacity is constructed through the conjunction of the elements body-object-sound relating and affecting each other mutually. Transferring concepts of sonority, spatiality, corporeality and temporality from one element to another.
