TBA - Teatro Bairro Alto Lisbon

A dance performance by Nivine Kallas exploring the tension between gesture and word, inspired by her experience in the Lebanese educational system.

Full details

Synopsis Nivine Kallas SãHO ACCESSIBILITY Little/No text Nivine Kallas explores the resonances and points of tension between gesture and word. Her dance dialogues with the Arabic language, its script and rhythm, its inflections and silences. SaHO is the fruit of her experience in the Lebanese educational system, where language and discipline leave lasting marks on both body and memory. Rooted in a childhood marked by absence and silence, the piece takes up a recurring image: a classroom window through which the mind fled while the body remained confined. This work refers to a state of suspension in which the spirit wanders between repression and light, absence and lucidity. It is the art of disappearing to survive. A silent dissidence. Through a choreographic language that extends between collapse and elevation, the piece explores embodied forms of linguistic, social, and political repression. In contrast to such forces, it proposes a state of delicate trance, imagination, and escape. Here the body does not obey, it deviates. It does not represent, it rises. It does not interpret, it reflects. Nivine Kallas is a choreographer, actress, and practitioner of the martial art Wushu gun. Her work intertwines the Arabic language with bodily movement. Her choreographic approach dissolves the boundaries between rehearsal, improvisation, and performance in search of a raw and authentic presence.

Show original (Portuguese)

Sinopse Nivine Kallas SãHO ACESSIBILIDADE Pouco/Nenhum texto Nivine Kallas explora as ressonâncias e os pontos de tensão entre o gesto e a palavra. A sua dança dialoga com a língua árabe, a sua grafia e o seu ritmo, as suas inflexões e os seus silêncios. SaHO é fruto da sua experiência no sistema educativo libanês, onde a língua e a disciplina deixam marcas duradouras tanto no corpo como na memória. Enraizada numa infância marcada pela ausência e pelo silêncio, a peça retoma uma imagem recorrente: uma janela de sala de aula através da qual a mente fugia enquanto o corpo permanecia confinado. Este trabalho refere-se a um estado de suspensão em que o espírito vagueia entre a repressão e a luz, a ausência e a lucidez. É a arte de desaparecer para sobreviver. Uma dissidência silenciosa. Através de uma linguagem coreográfica que se estende entre o colapso e a elevação, a peça explora formas corporizadas de repressão linguística, social e política. Em contraposição a tais forças, propõe um estado de transe delicado, imaginação e fuga. Aqui o corpo não obedece , desvia-se. Não representa , eleva-se. Não interpreta , reflete. Nivine Kallas é uma coreógrafa, atriz e praticante da arte marcial Wushu gun. O seu trabalho entrelaça a língua árabe com movimento corporal. A sua abordagem coreográfica dilui as fronteiras entre o ensaio, a improvisação e a performance em busca de uma presença crua e autêntica.
