📖 A psychomagic dialogue between Claudel and Giacometti

The play sets up an imaginary encounter between French sculptor Camille Claudel and Swiss painter and sculptor Alberto Giacometti. Placed in an ephemeral realm, both veteran creators engage in a dialogue confronting the chiaroscuro of their artistic lives.

The script delves into themes such as the immortality of artwork, the craft, transcendence, and the transformative power of art, alongside the fear of failure, doubts regarding one's own work, isolation, and madness. A poetic proposal located within an intangible space and timelessness.

🎭 Creative team and venue

The production is directed by Alexandra Nicod, accompanied by Dolores Garayalde in production and assistant direction. On stage, actors Cecilia Sarli and Antonio Gómez bring this dramatic reflection on the enigma of artistic vocation to life.
