About the presentation:

A duet that is an extract from the show What moves me? by Natércia Kuprian and Telmo Ferreira with choreographic assistance by Nuno Borba.

 This performance was presented at Mudas. Museum of Contemporary Art on February 9, 2018 and was developed under the project CAO ARTISTICO - ARTE EM MOBILIDADE (CAO ARTISTIC - ART IN MOBILITY )in partnership with the Regional Secretariat for Inclusion and Social Affairs, under the honorable mention of the BPI CAPACITAR 2016 award.

O que me move? (What moves me?)

An impulse for movement, which sometimes springs from physical presence, sometimes awakens itself through the pleasure of movement. A body, sometimes individual, sometimes in duo that expands and transmutes itself in the line of time and space.

A beat.
A look.
An encounter.
Both converge to a pulsing.
There is still time to be.
