A poetic experience that breaks the silence

Un bullicioso 'salón' lleno de una multitud diversa de 'jóvenes', sus conversaciones animadas creando un ambiente animado. Las 'sillas' de metal están dispersas al azar, lo que refleja una sensación de espontaneidad. El escenario está establecido con dos grandes 'pantallas' a cada lado y una pantalla central que muestra una 'coreografía' interpretada por bailarines de la Compañía de Danza Merce Cunningham. En primer plano, sentado en una silla está 'Anne Carson', vestida con un elegante 'traje negro' con una crujiente 'blusa blanca' y una vibrante 'corbata geométrica'. En el lado opuesto, 'James Mercy' se dedica a un "bordado 'intrincado, con sus manos con gracia mientras cose, el sonido de la aguja pinchando la tela amplificada a través de un micrófono, proyectado en las pantallas laterales. La atmósfera es inmersiva, ya que 'AΔalheiΔur Halldórrsdóttit', un bailarín islandés, realiza movimientos fluidos intermitentemente, a veces tejiendo a la audiencia.

A paraules dinar in an ambient vibrant

On Monday, May 12, at 6:45 p.m., the CCCB was transformed into a nucleus of activity, where young people of different ages gathered in an atmosphere of enthusiastic talks and encounters. The metal chairs, dispersed without a clear order, added a touch of freedom to the social stage that was being developed.

A Canadian poet and his creative universe

At 18:30, the magic began with a poetic recital presented by Barcelona Poetry, where the poet Anne Carson, born in Toronto in 1950 and a resident in Iceland, was the protagonist. The stage, adorned with screens showing choreography by Merce Cunningham Dance Company, served as a backdrop for a unique sensory experience.

A dialogue between words and pictures

Carson, in an elegant black dress and a brightly colored tie, was accompanied by the visual Artist James Mercy, who created images with his embroidery in real time. His hands, which followed the ritornell of the poem, were amplified by microphones, leading the public to a total immersion in his work.

Movements that speak

At the other end of the stage, the dancer AΔalheiδur Halldórsdóttit intertwined her movements with the reading of Carson, while Robert Currie, a visual artist and a collaborating artist, contributed his voice to poetic interpretation.

A Journey through Poetry

The atmosphere was loaded with hypnotic intensity, with the audience completely immersed in the words of Carson, who recited poems such as ‘by Chance the Cycladic People’ and ‘Possessive used as Drink (ME) in the readr on pronouns’. Núria Busquet’s translation accompanied the letters, making each word resonate in the hearts of the attendees.

Reflections on artistic creation

After reading, a round table moderated by Valerie Miles allowed to deepen the ideas that surround the creative process. Carson shared his vision on the importance of deep observation and the need to explore beyond superficiality.

Collaboration as a creative engine

The poet emphasized his collaboration with Currie, which brings a sculptural perspective to his works. He expressed how his interaction helps to bring his ideas to life, creating a space where poetry is transformed into a visual and emotional experience.

A cry of freedom to close the evening

The closing of the show was marked by a time of freedom and expression, when Currie invited all attendees to participate in a collective cry, inspired by artist Yoko Ono. This vibrant gesture symbolized the liberation and connection between art and the public, leaving a lasting imprint on the memory of all present.
