In Alice Ripoll and Cia REC's latest work, ›Lavagem‹, reality and fantasy mix together in a delirium, reminding us of an apocalyptic dream. With the help of buckets, water and soap, the performance investigates ambivalent images considering, and critically observing, the act of cleaning and its scenic and historical unfolding. The elements used in ›Lavagem‹ create multiple poetic images of exodus, crossings, rituals, rebirth, and resistance. What actually needs to be cleaned? The houses, the dirt inside the rooms? The trails left behind, the historical facts? The scents of body fluids, those we smell when we come close to each other? Soap foam colours the bodies and hints at invisibility; bubbles suggest a world of dreams, standing in stark contrast to the severe lack of social mobility in the real world. ›Lavagem‹ presents an ancestral past filled with struggles, but also with secrets about joy and cheerfulness.

Please note: Loud and sudden sound elements are being used in this work.
