Abstract

The show Hnuy illa, coproduced by the Kukai Dance Company and the Tanttaka Theater Company in 2008, is articulated in the intersection between dance and poetry. This dance show is based on the poetic imaginary of Basque writer Joseba Sarrionandia. We believe that this cultural transference, from the poetic to the choreographic text, offers a fitting interpretative framework to reflect on representations of the body and voice: it allows us to analyze instances of body and voice in the poetic text and how these are represented. Moreover, it helps to consider how these corporal presences and representations are transferred into dance.
