La conquista de lo inútil
Colectivo Circo Virtual
Chile
About the play:
The challenge for us would be to be able to convey the desire and beauty of observing and appreciating how simple things can give us space for imagination, calm, and deliver enjoyment through simple things. Likewise, we should ask ourselves about the possibilities of contemporary circus and its multidisciplinary intersection. We believe that in these hectic times, it’s very important to take the time to observe what we do every day, to reclaim the empty space of leisure as an abyss toward the possibility of other things happening. It’s as if we (myself included) have a deep fear of seeing what happens if I do nothing. This creation is the result of research in creative residencies that began at the Nau Ivanow center in Barcelona, and then in Chile, at Espacio Checoslovaquia, Nave, Estación Mapocho, and GAM.
