Cuqui Jerez

(Madrid)

The Real Fiction

Cuqui Jerez is a choreographer, dancer and director. She earned an international reputation thanks to A Space Odyssey (2002). The project began with meticulous manipulations of every-day objects in front of a camera set on the floor. Then came the projection of the video she had just filmed, which revealed a show completely different from what the audience had just witnessed. Relying on a play on perspectives and depth of field, the ordinary manipulations suddenly transformed the décor into a witty fantastical world. With her new creation, The Real Fiction, Cuqui Jerez observes choreographic art with an eye full of love and hate. She presents a new performance, as meticulous as the former, both humorous and Machiavellian.
