If every rock is a hole

Amparo González Sola
 
' Talented up-and-coming artist presents a fragile yet powerful solo on resistance and surrender '
 

The audience gathers on the floor on a large white surface. A body presents a number of intriguing postures. Now serene and still, now strong and powerful.

In her work, the talented up-and-coming Argentinian choreographer Amparo González Sola investigates how dance can make perceptible what seems invisible, silent or absent. How to use setbacks to build your strength? A powerful statement on resistance and surrender. 

"Amparo Gonzáles Sola’s latest work provides a clear outline on how to stay abstract and poetic while sending a strong political message. For me, this choreography is a manifesto of resistance in the face of oppression, of deriving empowerment from vulnerability."  - Grzegorz Reske, artistic director SPRING
