The return of BLIND
BLIND , a production by Duda Paiva Company, returns after a successful premiere in 2015. The piece, which was previously seen in major theaters and at festivals in London, New York, Tokyo, and the Netherlands, among others, is a unique fusion of dance, sound, light, and the manipulation of foam rubber sculptures.
A ritual of healing
The performance was created in collaboration with Nancy Black of Black Hole Theatre (Melbourne, Australia) and co-developed by Afro-Brazilian anthropologist Patrick Oliveira. BLIND is a physical ritual of healing, rooted in Paiva's personal experience with an illness that left scars and temporarily blinded him. The performer rewrites his body into a living map of vulnerability and resilience.
Meet Duda Paiva
After the performance, you will have the chance to meet Duda Paiva and his iconic sculptures. This offers you a unique opportunity to admire his extraordinary foam creations up close and learn more about the creative process and the inspiration behind BLIND . Don't miss this special meeting!
