Overview

Starting from the poetic and theatrical imagery of Federico García Lorca, DUENDE investigates the body as a place of resistance and fragility. Through the concept of duende—that dark, essential force rising from within— movement emerges as necessity, struggle, and truth. Over three intensive days, participants explore a physical practice where emotion is not illustrated but embodied: raw, essential, visceral. The final showing translates these elements into an uncompromising composition— minimal in form, powerful in presence.
