"Permanent Life" is a deeply personal exploration of love, loss, and the spaces in between. Through dance, I sought to capture the unspoken emotions that shape us, the pain of separation, the urgency of longing, and the rapid magic of connection.
Set against the backdrop of Barcelona, the city itself becomes more than a setting; it is a silent witness, its streets and architecture informed with the rhythms of two souls searching for each other. Every movement is intentional, each step a reflection of their inner turmoil and desire.
My hope is that Permanent Life lingers beyond the screen, stirring emotions, evoking memories, and perhaps even inspiring audiences to rediscover their own stories of love and distance.
