Amadora Llama

In the group piece “Amadora LLama” the dancers give themselves to a congregation of nuns, full of longing and passion. The ecstatic experiences of the religious community consist of polyphonic dances and textsm Inspired by the poems of the 16th century Spanish nun, mystic and REformist and poet Teresa of Àvila, Veza Fernández explores queer feminist embodiments in a religious context. In the deep connection of saints and mystics to the emotional world lurks emancipatory potential – also for erotic self-empowerment. An awakening from blind lethargy, trusting in the unknown, emotional, mysterious, intuitive chaos. Shows: April 2019 Tanzquartier Vienna March 2022 a la casa encendida de fundacion montemadrid
