Prenúncio de uma profunda melancholia

The performer walks a path that takes him to the space of action. The space is an outdoor lawn. He is dressed in a white skirt, flats and socks. He has a harmonica in his mouth that produces sound resulting from movement and breathing throughout the performance. Upon arriving at the space, he performs a succession of poetic and abstract choreographic scores. The sequences follow various configurations and ordered moments: drawing a half moon in space, walking backwards, cutting grass from the ground and throwing it to the side, moving away and approaching the space, falling to the ground, putting down the harmonica to howl 3 times. The performer interprets a melody from the song Mr. Lonely by Bobby Vinton on the harmonica. The performer leaves the space.
