Pleasure through impact: from a performative action, the body falls into contemporary dance. The relationship between the body and the platform, between intimacy and exposure. An intervention that develops corporeality through objects, live sound and techno music. Spiritual emptiness is falling, having an accident, dancing alone or directing an orchestra in which no one wants to play. A piece that feels a constant emptiness and that only wants to be filled.
Richard Mascherin is a graduate in Contemporary Dance, with a degree in General Film Direction and a specialist in Film and TV. He has worked with Sharon Fridman and Marcos Morau, among others. Focused on contemporary and audiovisual performing arts, the inevitability of the fall is the leitmotiv of his artistic research: being between dance and performance, between the body and sound, between realism and theatre. He resides between Madrid and Tenerife.
