Domingo 2022
Second edition of La Casa Encendida's performing arts festival that brings together experimental proposals from different disciplines, generations and geographical regions. Featuring performance pieces, workshops and talks, Domingo 2022 is articulated around the light, the voice and the performativity of sound and language, as well as other possible modes of interaction.
After the first edition, Domingo returns with a new space for listening to what is happening in contemporary performing arts practice. Centred around body-based performance, the festival programme includes pieces from the fields of dance, drama, cinema, music, science, architecture and design.
Recent years have seen considerable speculation and discussion about the use of the voice and word on the experimental scene, perhaps a symptom of their loss in the public and political arena. In the field of the performing arts, a premonitory reflection of different practices, the voice, language and its sounds appear to be regaining their value as materials for creation. For Domingo 2022, they come together under different forms of expression.
The removal of conventions from performance underpins the proposals featured in the festival, asserting other possible kinds of events, other experiences for meaningful interaction between audiences and artists. Light and its manifestations also illuminate this edition, whether as practical materials for creating pieces or as a fundamental principle of the theory.
Light, voice and other forms of interaction are the curatorial themes that irradiate from the performance pieces, workshops and talks at Domingo 2022, turning the festival into an open invitation to audiences to construct a stage for watching and listening to other ways, a space for conspiring and colluding. In other words, for once again breathing and telling stories in company.
