Residency Project

Supermedium is a large-format work inspired by Medium, a solo piece created by Ingri Fiksdal and Núria Guiu in 2022 and which opened the 2023-24 season. In the history of dance up to the present day, there have been different approaches to the incarnation of that which is virtual or invisible. Witches and mediums have always been women associated with the fringes of society and with superpowers. In this new work for CÈL·LULA #4, Núria Guiu will be accompanied by the Norwegian choreographer Ingri Fiksdal. In Supermedium, the dancers are the medium through which dances from different times and spaces are channelled, thus becoming a conduit that connects past, present and future time. Through actions of invocation, possession and exorcism of movements, the performance becomes a speculative fiction about the corporeal knowledges and histories that pass through us and are transmitted to other bodies. Supermedium is performed by 9 dancers, including Guiu herself.
