The Square.project is an ongoing research into the creation of new performative languages for the stage.
Taking a simple geometric shape — the square — as a point of departure, the exploration unfolds.
The square transforms into movement, rhythm, and shifting forms, until it begins to generate words, music, colors, and archetypes. Gradually, these elements shape an imaginary world of its own, populated by unique characters and stories.
