Batecs

What do we do with the idea, expectation and desire of this being?

The recorded statistics say that one in four pregnancies does not come to fruition. This tells us that we are all directly or indirectly crossed by a pain that, today, has no name, no space, no time. It is confined to the silence of the intimacy of our body.

The work is a resonance box of the beats that once were, to create a luminous rhythm that cradles us and accompanies us in this silenced mourning.

Perinatal grief
It had been a day since she died and her belly was a coffin.
In the operating room, no comfort.
"Everything is very clean, madam!"
She is silent and longs: it had never been dirty.
