Residency project

In the creation of Henda and Xala, dance is presented as a primordial platform of expression, a common ground in the connection between Wura Moraes and her father, Mário Calixto (1960-1996), dancer and choreographer. It is a research that deepens the access created by the body and movement, fueled by the materials provided by the video dimension, where the past, present, and future possibilities overlap.
