Ça Marche.
Fires

  • Koningin Astridpark, Ghent

The site-specific performance Fires, by the young company Ça Marche from Barcelona, immerses us in the experience of an uncontrollable forest fire. Surrounded by darkness and ash, we witness a landscape in transformation, where light, smoke, scent and sound make us feel the hypnotizing power of fire and its destructive force. Beauty and destruction, danger and fascination coexist in the same space. A sensory journey that invites us to reflect on the vulnerability and power of nature, while simultaneously questioning our responsibility for its destruction.
