COSA. Intervenir un cuerpo (THING. Intervene a body) is the piece that closes my trilogy on ILLUSIONISM, a research that has led me to think about how illusion connects with the essence of theater, exposing on the stage convention and magic, reality and its double, action and fiction. This research, which began in 2017, involves the pieces !AY! YAY! (2018), a research on perceptual images thought from the body and “The Watching Machine” (2020), a research on perceptual images thought from light, shadow and reflection.

On this occasion, in COSA, we investigate the perceptual images from the scenographic. To do this, we have thought of the body as another material, reifying it to the point of turning it into a prop.

COSA is a dance piece composed by an objective dance body.
