The Stain

duration : 80'

The Stain brings together things that are not meant to be together. Marked by a specific interest for the undefinable, the unclassifiable and the uncertain, the work of María Jerez lies at the crossroads of choreography, cinema and visual arts. In the development of this project, the artist surrounded herself with a carpenter, a musician, a painter, a baker and a light designer. Rather than accumulating know-how, the aim was to open up an area of shared knowledge, fostering new connections, where the familiar is cast aside. Thus, The Stain reveals itself as an unstable space where entities of various natures coexist: plant, human, animal, mineral, fungal, female, male and more that move in a choreography of uninterrupted encounters. The Stain is not a single piece but countless works at the same time.
