UAQUE

UAQUE is an interdisciplinary collaboration that intersects the radical choreographic universe of Andrea Peña & Artists with the evocative landscapes of Canadian photographer Edward Burynsky, in order to reflect on the anthropocene within a performative event. Accompanied by the live presence of the National Arts Center Orchestra in dialogue with electronic music composer, Eƨƨe Ran, ten performers are juxtaposed against the magnitude of Burtynsky’s images which viscerally reflect onto the audience our globalized effects on the land. UAQUE is an interwoven symphony with 80 performers, who merge multiple artistic mediums, share with us a visceral call to action, to prompt collective transformation. A work that does not offer a definitive solution to the scale of our epoch, rather prompts us through Peña’s indigenous Colombian heritage to reconsider union and unity, levelling the human and non human form.
