Elías Aguirre. The End of the World. The skillful task of circumventing the kidnapping of the movement

The movement has hijacked us but not our concern or the ability to imagine. We are a dancing insectary complex that does not stop yet confined It is a grotesque rebellion of the characters of Elías Aguirre's shows during COVID-19: 87 crickets, White Room, Entomo, Squalid Marsupial, Longfade, Fight or flight, Flightless, Shy Blue, Sphinx Fish, Puk and Nuk, Rarewalk, Primitive Insect ... In Aguirre's words: «The movement has kidnapped us, but not our concern or the ability to imagine. We are a dancing insectary complex that is still confined to its lair. » In extraordinary moments like this, it is urgent to develop superhero skills or be inspired by the fascinating and much closer entomological microworld: ants that fight with formic acid, fleas with super jumps, fireflies with luminescence power, leaf insects with incredible camouflage power ... Let's get hold of our powerful creative anticoagulant and use languages ​​that inhabit the confined space; those languages ​​that make us travel, heal and metamorphose. » Perhaps we are facing the end of the dance as we knew it until now. Perhaps we realize the true power of this relegated art. Perhaps there is a new scenic world to discover. Our liberation could be accompanied by a dizzying approach to the invisible nature that reconquers the places that were taken from it. In that case, we would have the opportunity to relive the experiences of ancient explorers, to enter unknown and inspiring landscapes that could well be the new settings.
