Working with Vera Mantero at Re.al

2 by two we were showing our feelings, thoughts, sensations, memories...what was crossing our minds and bodies at that moment.
This was Teresa, in my way of seeing it...



There was Teresa, with her very characteristic T-shirt and trousers.
Her position was very tight, it was dificult to see her face. But I knew that something was happening.
She walks on, cannot breathe so well. Her legs are stuck, she can hardly move and she is so near me...Bites her knee. So strong, so beautiful this image.
Angry, concentrated, focused.
Gets free now. Starts to feel happy, breathing more easily. Her body starts to get free of this stress. It is more fluid and it´s becoming different. She is playing with me with her ass. She is enjoying. I´m also enjoying.
Playing with her hair becoming a litlle girl. Now, a woman, showing how the movement of her head is so sexy. Tries to sing. Her song is transforming into a weird melody and her body falls and drags on the floor, while her wrists are beating on the floor.
Immediatly all changes. Hapiness and entusiasm!
Becoming tired. Her legs don´t respond again, don´t move, don´t have enough strenght. Starts shaking, dancing...actually, it's more about moving the head and making sounds.
Dances like in a disco.
Dances like in a gym, doing step classes.
Thank you. I am finishing the dance.
Tries to smile.
Shows her teeth.
Transforms herself into a fish. Fishgirl.
Explores her face.
Finds one expression. Kind of sad. Hides her face. Again.
But now with her arms, while spinning very very slowly.

to Teresa
