What does the figure of Ophelia represent beyond the Shakespearean character?
Opheleia, a work already presented by the dancer on other occasions, is rethought within the spaces of the Museum. In this performance, the figure of Ophelia becomes a gateway to a new dimension. There is no pretense of reconstructing the Shakespearean character and delving into the well-known plot of the tragedy. It is about a stolen body, which clings to the perception of itself as the only reality with which to dialogue.
