Aixopluc
- Performance
- Instalation
A performance about the possibility to create domestic intimacy in the female prison of Wad Ras, Barcelona.
The performance “Aixopluc” (“shelter” in Catalan) is part of the ongoing project INSIDE OUT, which investigates the meaning of domestic and solitary intimacy spaces for women in a situation of confinement through performative writing.
The physical poem reflects on water as an empowering element for the imprisoned women, as a bridge to our profound not-knowing about their situation, referencing the Nereids, the daughters of the god of the seas in Greek mythology. Although they are direct descendants of an important god in mythology writings, they were never given much attention other than insisting on their extreme beauty. So close yet so far away, just like women in the penalty system.
The piece was developed in residency at CeRRCa at Llorenç del Penedés and presented on the 16th of August as an invitation to the Grand Tour 2023 by Nau Côclea and Clara Garí.
