The Great Theatre of Bodies

The Great Theater of Bodies that Gabriela Spector stages is a theater of tenderness. A tenderness that we see in the embraces, in the search for bonds, in the traces of life found. The figure of that father, who carries a son on his shoulders, who abandons himself on him, is moving. Alongside the warmth of these figures, in which you feel the sculptural material regenerated by the artist's hand, the breezes of our struggle to live are revealed, as if they were held in a secret and intimate place, the limping, which inhabits existence, but also the joy of the bodies found. Bodies that thus become 'sentinels of the order of love', always balanced between body-matter and body-poetry.
