WATER

reflections for water bodies

clown show in nature

with the support of CITA Orango Bando
Two clowns in a little green boat with a waterfall behind it watch the reflections in the water.

Water always reflects, what about humans? Two characters drift in a flow of thoughts, they float and remain still. Sometimes, there's very little worth saving. What do we bring along to face the void? Thrills, sensations, and listening to nature, in a performance immersed in what surrounds us, close to what is most essential: water.
