Prusik is the name of a gripping and locking knot. A friction binding with the characteristic that it releases when pressure is released. A knot of salvation.
We use the metaphor of the Prusik knot to represent the universe of a community.
In search of new parameters, the tribe is self-destining with the proposal of a new humanity. In order not to build the same again and from the courage to create something new in relation to bonds, to desire, to the longing to be free, to the original nature of being; to the nakedness of oneself, to emotion, to work, to the family, to the planet… To recover the innocence of becoming, to play again in peace and rediscover the identity that precedes separation.
It is urgent and necessary to storm Eden and take it back.
The company La intrusa brings together in Prusik a network of performers from the Basque Country and Galicia. A meeting of 9 women who vindicate the urgency of recovering tenderness.
