fETCH BEGOÑA QUIÑONES & MAR RODRÍGUEZ

fETCH is a piece that examines and plays with the concept of the alter ego. The alter ego can present itself in the form of a reflection, shadow or even a dream. It is a vessel onto which man projects his or her desires and yearnings for the self. These ideas served as the point of departure for fETCH and enabled the two performers to develop a common choreographic vocabulary. The performers use this language to engage in a game of identity and perception that envelopes both the audience and themselves.
