Co2 and Other Toxins

Breath in. Breath out. Breath in. Breath out

Breath in. Breath in. Breath in.

In the human body, asphyxia is caused by insufficient supply of oxygen and results in the accumulation of toxic carbon dioxide (Co2) in the lungs. Asphixya was the physical response that we, as a group of physical performers, found dealing with the images of the landscape of Rio Doce after the chemical accident occured in November 2015, when the entire flora and fauna of Rio Doce in Mariana, southeast of Brazil, were killed by a chemically contaminated clay, after one of the worse dam breaking in history. In the photographs one can see a landscape destroyed by a toxic clay which carries the memory of dead within itself.

Live-cinema, dance and sound design is used to make Co2 and Other Toxins an immersive experience.
