In her latest work, Hamburg-based Mexican choreographer Yolanda Morales and her international team explore the cosmic event of a solar eclipse. Inspired by indigenous narratives from Abya Yala, the piece celebrates the transformative power of the sun. It radically questions colonial thinking and adopts an ecological-decolonial perspective. In view of global warming, the heat of the sun is not only life-giving, but also becomes a threat. The stage is transformed into a charged, dense space in which darkness and light, dreams and memories are woven together by the dancers in various stories, culminating in the possibility of a new beginning. Powerful, energetic, poetic and deeply rooted in a tradition in which contemporary dance can be experienced as a social practice.
