(the) Body. The being with no soul.
(the) Conscience. The presupposed soul of the being.
(the) Being. The one who, imprisoned, understands her little world and accepts the vastness beyond the currents that assure her existence.
CORRENTE follows the formation of a unified being by thinking about the role of choice in a society where living implies the duality of body and conscience. Exploring this connection, translated into plastic and vital movements, a duet emerges that aims to sensitise to the unity of existence.
