Sylvia Camarda and Sascha Ley join forces in this new production that dives into the universe of the iconic Mexican artist Frida Kahlo.
Dancer and choreographer Sylvia Camarda shapes the project's physical dimension with her forceful distinctly dynamic style, while singer and actress Sascha Ley shapes the dialogue using her vocal talent to oscillate between instantaneous improvisation and fixed composition. Together they explore Kahlo's unique poetic glamour and investigate the myth and continued fascination with the artist.
Indeed, the two performers say "we may well tend to see our own longings and aspirations embodied by this extraordinary lady: her inner strength, passion, unconditional love and distinct individuality".
