About La Cantadora Shamana de Cabaret 

¿Cómo se configura el terror? ¿Cómo se libera el cuerpo de una historia que deforma la erótica de sus descendientes? ¿Qué amor sexual surge de un corazón deformado por la semilla del opresor y el huevo del oprimido? En Cantadora Shamana de Cabaret, Carmina Escobar realiza un ritual performativo parte ópera, parte hechizo y parte análisis humorístico de su vida como exportación erótica: una mujer-criatura, un espíritu de pájaro, en cuyas venas hierve el sexo antagonista del opresor y el oprimido, producto de la mezcla conflictiva del mestizaje.

Portando un vestuario de plumas sónicas que la convierten en pájaro, vedette  y chamana, Escobar interpreta una partitura derivada de su historia familiar y erótica entrelazada con un ensueño de su tocaya la artista de cabaret latinoamericana Iris Chacón y con el arquetipo de diosa madre terrible de la cosmogonía prehispánica.

Sobre la artista

La vocalista experimental Carmina Escobar es una intérprete creativa de música contemporánea, improvisadora, artista sonora y de intermedia procedente de la Ciudad de México. Su trabajo se centra principalmente en el sonido, la voz, el cuerpo y sus interrelaciones con espacios físicos, sociales y de la memoria. Ha explorado intensamente las capacidades de su voz, desarrollando una amplia gama de técnicas vocales que aplica no sólo a su interpretación y práctica creativa sino también para investigar ideas y conceptos radicales sobre la voz.

Colaboradores: Asher Hartman, Fernando Vigueras
Diseñadores de vestuario: Beck+Col, Liz Goetz, Jerónimo García Naranjo
