Olor de Menta
2019 / Short performance for non-conventional spaces
Olor de menta is a dance piece that sketches and inhabits an imagined space through two bodies placed at the service of a collage of Joan Brossa's stage poems.
The performance is accompanied by an educational toolkit presented as a workshop, inviting participants to explore the very same games and practices featured in the piece. The toolkit includes a set of laminated cards divided into characters, spatial situations, spatial qualities and actions. Using these elements, participants create their own collage—or their own Olor de menta.
