Brazilian choreographer Gabriel Lorena refers to his movement as sign language, allowing dancers to access their inner voice exploring imagination and musicality by combining classical technique with a touch of humanity, letting human experiences bring movement to life.

UNDER MY SKIN
YIN YANG
FEATHER
​
“ In me, not made to be seen. Deeper than flesh and bones, remaining alive when I am gone. Screams louder than my voice, echoing the sound of my heart. Rips my skin, setting my soul free. Embraces my flaws, manifesting my human nature. Fed by imagination, bringing movement to life. Takes me away to bring me closer.

In the dark there is some light, in the blind there is some sight. In the wrong there is some right, in the black there is some white.

Life is always going to grow feathers on you, with the purpose of making you fly higher to get you where you are supposed to be and to help you discover who you are meant to be. Some of them will come from moments of pain, loss or darkness, but some will grow out of moments of love, happiness or joy.
