‘guns/roses’ is a creation based on the sport of athletics, made for one female dancer and one male soprano.Movement is the anchor, the base of it all, in which this work is confided : in it's honesty and self-sufficiency. As for the colour of this choreography, it is inspired by the inner personality of each performer, dancer Tania Arias versus violinist and male soprano Hans Van Kerckhoven.
Spanish fashion designer, Ana Locking, took a sample of her own blood and replicated it onto fabric. What seem baroque images are but a macro photo of her red and white globules flowing through her blood.
