Hyenna – não deforma, não tem cheiro, não solta as tiras

Who are we? Do we still need the guidance of an European eye to legitimize our work? Are we replicas of a neo-colonial process perpetuated since the times of the French court? Has this dance not lost its shape? Has not started to smell? Has not lost its strings? The hyena imposed itself as a powerful symbol of a lower life; an ambiguous existence between laughter and all that is beyond, a tool for an investigation of choreographic methods. A stand up tragedy.

Born in Minas Gerais, Tuca Pinheiro is a choreographer, dancer, choreographic director, teacher and researcher of contemporary dance.  A graduate from Escola de Dança da Fundação Clóvis Salgado (Belo Horizonte), he was an interpreter with several national companies and collaborated with local and foreigner creators. Since 1996 he is the choreographic director of many different projects.
