Salar la pena is a stage project that hybridizes poetry and circus, taking the body in crisis as its central axis. Through movement, technical form, and voice, the body —the lyrical self— attempts to construct a liturgy of cleansing or emptying, exploring failure, loss, desire, and everything that connects the divine with the monstrous.
“i thought grief would be something
manageable like pork flesh first
to salt it then to clean it then to store it”
