La espina que quiso ser flor

Olga Pericet (1975) is a leading name in the flamenco and Spanish dance of her generation and is one of its most recent innovators. With absolute technical mastery, on stage she displays a harmonious and refined style of great expressiveness, which led her to win the Premio Max for Best Dancer in 2015. In La espina que quiso ser flor, Pericet proposes an artistic journey with a personal language that reaches deep into the unknown starting from the roots, creating a universe where there is room for female and male, humour and drama in equal measure, an encounter of human beings’ darkness and light. With fierce precision, she explores the images of a strange beauty stored in the memory, where darkness calmly lingers until the light eventually appears.
