Last Hope

What happens when we take away the visible, when we close our eyes? In an eye-centric world full of images; neat, smooth and impeccable, which do not harm, but which also cannot be felt. Have we become desensitized by images, is there still a possibility for us to feel beyond the immediacy of our gaze?

In order to contrast a hyperconnectivity that does not smell, that does not put up any resistance and seems to abolish all porous reality, two women of completely different origins meet on stage. Hilda Snippe, a 60-year-old Dutch woman with 1% vision in one eye, and Ébana Garín, a 33-year-old sighted Chilean woman, create an encounter where human perception can expand the margins of the visible world.

ABOUT CUERPO SUR

Cuerpo Sur proposes to stage the histories and practices of the bodies without the right to govern, the bodies that make up the margin, that have been displaced from the great histories. Those who are counted as numbers

in the graphs, but have no name. It is precisely this impure body that bothers the neoliberal system, and that is why it must be turned into the enemy of the State. Why? Because perhaps this body is re exive, curious, unproductive.

Created by Ébana Garín, co -founder of the company Cuerpo Indisciplinado (Indisciplined Body) and director of works such as La Clínica (2014) and Los Diez (2017), and Luis Guenel, director of Teatro Niño Proletario with works such as “El Otro” (2012), “Fulgor” (2016) and “Nobody reads while everything is burning” (2019).
