“Tânia Carvalho delimits, with a luminosity of cinematographic contours, her territory of choreographic design to her face, torso and upper limbs. A black costume roots her, immobile in the center of the stage, where she is accompanied by a hypnotic minimal sound design, composing a solo of a beauty as subtle as it is grandiose.”
Alexandra Balona, Público
“A single person, on top of a stage, hardly escapes unless he is… but is there anyone else here? I’ve been here for so long. What is this? What are these things?
Oh! It is me! where am i? I’m stuck in this place.”
Tânia Carvalho
Captured by Intuition arises from the question that the choreographer made to herself: “what does it mean to want to be doing a piece for me?” Instead of looking for it, she waited for the movements to come to her intuitively, to pass through her, letting them flow freely. The result is a solo that lies between lyrical abstractionism and figurativism, a dualism between its expressionist side and rigorously drawn choreographic movement.
