Scenography - collaboration with Joana Subtil and Toninho Neto for “Carmen”, a dance show in Almada.

︎︎︎

In this project developed for Almada Dance Company, we created the scenography for the recreation of the opera “Carmen”, by the French composer Georges Bizet, turned into a contemporary dance performance.

Four scenarios were created: 
“the industry”, with smoke inside the “towers” and the dancers dancing around it;
“the bar”, where glasses were floating in the air and the dancers pulling them down and up playfully;
the cleaning moment;
the “gold square” (taurus arene) made with fire blankets.
