Imperfect Note to Creation Atopos is the figure that the being in love makes of the being they love. By being considered by the being in love as unique, the loved being is not comparable to any other. Because in its uniqueness it responds so completely to the particularity of the desire of the one who is bewitched by it, atopia is the elevated state of the human being. As in love, any opinion we make of the other is always a reflection of ourselves, an extension of our beliefs and taste.
Atopos the piece is born from the encounter of two young choreographers with the desire to think about the gaze we direct at bodies and their value as part and expression of each being. Their artistic will grew once that interest intersected with the poetic perspective of focusing on the summit of our admiration (the loved one). Despite its significant value, the beloved being is more than the place created for them, it is also and always the hidden, it is always the relationship between the hidden and the enlightened space.
