Clausura Art Nou 2025
Finissage, and Art Nou Prize 2025 award ceremony with performance “Parafonías” by Blanca Tolsá Rovira, with Pepe Lolo, Berta Pascu and Rodrigo Rammey.
Parafonías
When two sound waves with the same frequency enter into a slight phase shift with each other, the human ear perceives their friction as a third note. Parafonías proposes a sensory experience in which the intuitive relationships between movement and sound are distorted and open up a space that is both foreign and familiar, stirring our curiosity and empathy. What would happen if, in a communicative act, voice and gesture did not go exactly hand in hand? The intentions of the body or voice drift, creating a territory where meaning is questioned and the imaginary is transformed.
Blanca Tolsá, a graduate of the Conservatorio Profesional de Danza del Instituto del Teatro, began her career as a dancer with IT Dansa. In 2021, she created her first piece, Ecoica, presented at the Dansa València and Dansa Metropolitana festivals. In 2024, she is an emerging artist at El Graner, where she develops this second piece of her own, Parafonías. Since 2016, she has worked as a performer with Lipi Hernández, Ariadna Montfort, Raquel Klein, Robert Zappalà, Albert Quesada, Magdalena Garzón, Jacob Gómez, Anna Macau, Constança Brcnic, Núria Guiu, Paloma Muñoz Siberia and Georgia Vardarou.
