“THERE IS A TENSION BETWEEN THE BEGINNING AND THE END. IT WITHHOLDS ALL AND EVERYTHING EMERGES OUT OF IT” IN THIS SHORT CHOREOGRAPHIC PIECE MADE FOR VIDEO, IXCHEL MENDOZA HERNÁNDEZ GETS INSPIRATION FROM THE CIRCLE, SYMBOLISING WHOLENESS, ETERNITY, TIMELESSNESS. EXPLORING THE SIMPLICITY AND POTENTIALITY OF A CIRCULAR MOTION, THE BODY EVOLVES SLOWLY AND UNFOLDS PERSISTENTLY, AND BECOMES A MOTOR FOR A CHOREOGRAPHY. A PATH CONNECTING ENDLESSLY A BEGINNING AND AN END, AS AN ONGOING CYCLE BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH.
