“To climb as a symbol of self-improvement, the path of a pilgrimage as a symbol of salvation. The two paths that are proposed redeem the body; both make us play with what is unattainable. This piece is a literal journey; it circulates from one point to another like an adventure, a tragedy. Along the path the body is transfigured as penitence, because a body that pleads is transformed, it prostrates itself on the ground and it writhes. In the course of this search the krump appears, a bewitched corporality: flamenco. As the hymn says, “it all began one morning”, and like in all journeys, no one knows where it ends. My sheperdhess, my Queen, Lady of my soul: save me. Rocío sabe me.” La Chachi
