The Basement is a fictional space based on true events where the audience is invited into a journey full of feelings and emotions difficult to describe in words. Ungraspable yet felt with intensity. Making visible the invisible.
This solo work by and with Daniel Mariblanca explores the multiple realities and fictions that arise from the dynamics expressed when power relationships are morphed. It is intuition led, allowing the body to speak through physical expression and freedom. The practice of freedom is personal, artistic, and requires labor, courage and urgency to expand beyond imposed limits of acceptability, legitimacy or beauty.
Few weeks before The Basement world premiere, Daniel Mariblanca talks about 71BODIES Dance Company, and its new performance, in the podcast hosted by the Oslo venue where the premiere is going to take place.
