ARTAUD: LENGUA ∞ MADRE is a theater and music performance that, by crossing disciplines, attempts to approach certain aspects of Antonin’s poetic and psyche. Through a non-traditional narrative, Gabo Ferro and Emilio García Wehbi joint work enables possible landscapes combining the French poet’s substance and life-related objects, all under the influence of a recent electroshock session: a contemporary altarpiece made with orphan words; bodies disciplined by the mechanics of order seeking their release through cannibalism; school notes submitted to psychodiagnostics; tunes finding their lost sound through Henry Purcell; animals slaughtered in the name of the Father, among other visions.
