Acidente, 2025Tue Jul 19 2022
As part of her exhibition “Like a lion in a cage” at Cc Strombeek, a new performance was created in collaboration with five dancers.

In 1998, Elen Braga and friends attended a church conference in a city near São Paulo. Tragically, on their way home, the bus they were traveling in lost its brakes and overturned, killing 16 people. Elen, 14 years old, survived and witnessed the disaster. Every year, on the anniversary of the accident, Elen receives reminders on social media that God spared her, as evidence of a miracle. But these reminders often bring more fear than comfort. In her performance, titled "Acidente," she reflects on the relationship between images and trauma. The performance plays out like a GIF, with the performers' movements repeating themselves, like a frustrated struggle, unable to move forward.

With the participation of Vladimir Babinchuk, Casper Engels, Plien Leroy, Leni Meskens, Eleni Roberts Kazouri and Verena Rizzo and assistance from Bo Paps.
