The work developed by Cia. dos Pés throughout these 23 years of existence seeks to distance itself from colonial imaginaries by producing other figurative paths in the production and making of its dance. […] its dramaturgy builds its political and poetic meanings based on its own ground, which is irregular and uneven, different from the colonial ground that always seeks to smooth and plan the territories and symbologies of colonised bodies and territories.

Cia. dos Pés works with procedural dramaturgy, choosing human material as fundamental resource. The leadership of meaning in the choreographic piece is built by the dramaturgy of physicality. The narrative takes place, is made by and in the dancing body poetics. Another aspect I consider exquisite are dancing bodies that follow expressive body techniques in the hybrid relation between diverse dances arising from plural matrices and interact and reinstate the contemporary scenic body.
