D’ENÇÀ (which translates as From There but is also a play on words as it sounds like “to dance” in Catalan) is a shared dance, an opening, an accord in space and time that invites us to continue caring for our movements and how we encounter one another. The proposal seeks to create a poetic and contemplative environment, offering glimpses of possible ways of living and moving.
In a dance that gradually unfolds throughout the piece, new cosmologies of unison and explosion open up. Being in unison enables us to understand movement as a meeting place, where we can feel affected and accompany each other by listening and paying attention.
In an almost installation-like space, D’ENÇÀ proposes an ongoing dance that is promiscuous and in continuous transformation. It is a movement we can create together, one that can open up worlds, create spaces of our own and make cracks appear that are suspended in time.
BACKGROUND
Quim Bigas Bassart works in choreography, dramaturgy and informational practices. Using the frameworks of dance and choreography, his projects aim to develop a sense of place.
In 2019, he premiered DV (Desplaçament variable – Variable Displacement ) at Mercat de les Flors and developed a series of performative conferences on archives in DV (Desplega visions – Unfold Visions).
In 2023 he was commissioned to create a piece for Esbart Rocasagna called Era. Presented at the Fira Mediterrània (Manresa), it is still touring. He also continues to present previous pieces such as MOLAR and LA LLISTA.
