BLACK GOLD
Oro negro (Black Gold) is a two-bodied solo with live music. It premiered at the 40th Festival de Otoño de Madrid at the Teatro de la Abadía in 2022.
Oro negro (Black Gold) is centered around the metaphorical idea of petroleum, linking the extraction of the natural treasure to the valorization of elements and identities denied and excluded from the hegemonic western culture.
2022


In Oro Negro (Black Gold) the body is both the instrument for digging and what is being dug up, revealing what is demonic: soft flesh, vulnerable and perishable; female eroticism seen through a woman’s desire; blackness and popular culture.
