Residency project
Will it be in this tremulous, degenerate, battered, crooked, displaced and infinitely distorted movement that life exists? Cher is the search for an autotune for bodies that examines the links between the body, its transformation and its ethical-aesthetic limits. In this solo, Juan Carlos Lérida uses the audio processor Auto-Tune, which corrects the frequencies that are out of tune. Thus, it aims to distort movement to place paradigms of body image and out-of-tune bodies in friction and manifests the mutant fictions that appear between tuning and detuning.
