“Atávico” does not aim to put forth a narrative; instead, it presents a scenic experience

connected to feelings of violence and their impact on the body: the scenery that, like a

hidden force, makes us victims and torturers at the same time.

With our project, we use “everyday” body types that do not meet conventional standards

in hopes of sharing the beauty of movement and everyday gestures beyond what we

typically see, as well as dance that transcends all virtuosity.
