A poetic and visual performance can also provide a space for social reflection. This is the case with 'Presente', a production by artist Mireia Miracle, which will be presented on 13 November at the La Bòbila Cultural Centre, as part of the inclusive gestural theatre cycle, Gestviu.
The narrative follows a clown who lives on a plastic island, waking each day surrounded by objects discarded by others. However, one day she discovers an unexpected gift that transforms her perspective on the world forever. This marks the beginning of 'Presente', the third solo work of the award-winning artist Mireia Miracle.
'Presente' delves into themes such as the environment, waste, and the intrinsic value of items often considered rubbish. It serves as a tribute to imagination, childhood, and the ability to turn what seems like trash into a genuine treasure. The performance is characterised by its visual clowning, poetic elements, and a message of hope.
The production features an original soundtrack that offers an acoustic journey, blending circus music, gypsy jazz, and electronic and experimental sounds.
