Description

A pelo [a ˈ pe.lo] – — prilog. Značenje:

1. Napravljeno bez zaštite ili pripreme, bez previše razmišljanja.

2. Golo; bez prikrivanja.

3. Kolokvijalno: bez sedla

4. Preneseno: suočiti se s nečim nenaoružan, često impulzivno.

U ovom sirovom i fizičkom duetu, koji služi kao prequel predstavi We Play So Hard We Hurt Each Other, Fernando Troya nas vraća u mračniji period svoje prošlosti. Vrijeme hiper-seksualizacije zbog kojeg je često osjećao krivnju i osudu, koje ga je često ostavljalo u osjećaju krivnje i osude. Predstava prikazuje kako queer želja postaje sukob, a tijelo njezino bojište. Bez isprike intimna, ona mora biti viđena, mora ju se osjetiti i izdržati.

Dvije tijela zarobljena. Kad jedno pokuša pobjeći, drugo postaje čuvar.

Što ako je jedini izlaz kroz drugu osobu?

A Pelo nije ovdje da vas zadovolji, tu je da vas posjeduje.

Fernando Troya (1989) je izvedbeni umjetnik i direktor A Pelo Productions. Trenutačno ga podržava ICK Amsterdam. Živi i djeluje u Amsterdamu, Nizozemska, iako je rođen u Madridu, Španjolska. Diplomirao je na Kraljevskom konzervatoriju plesa u Madridu (2008.) te završio preddiplomski studij plesa na Konzervatoriju María de Ávila (2022.). Njegova autorska praksa, međutim, proteže se i na područje fizičkog teatra i izvedbe.

Godine 2024. Fernando je producirao i predstavio We play so hard it hurts na Amsterdam Fringe Festivalu, uz podršku ICK Amsterdam, AFK, Norma Fonds, Free Willie i Club Church, među ostalima. Dobio je International Bursary Award, zahvaljujući kojem se predstava trenutno izvodi na nacionalnim i međunarodnim turnejama.

Također je producirao nezavisne projekte poput serije Reminiscente, dvogodišnjeg i pol istraživačkog projekta o Platonovoj teoriji ideja i slikaru Franciscu de Goyi; Essential Rights, koji je osvojio nagradu BNG Bank Dansprijs u Nizozemskoj; te Withering, solo rad koji je izvođen i nagrađivan na različitim festivalima diljem svijeta.

A pelo [a ˈ pe.lo] — loc. Adv. 

  1. Done without protection or preparation, without much thought. 
  2. Naked; without disguise. 
  3. Colloq. without a saddle, “bareback”. 
  4. Fig. To face something unarmed, often impulsively.

In this raw and physical duet, which serves as a prequel to We Play So Hard We Hurt Each Other, Fernando Troya takes us back to a darker period of his past. A time of hypersexualization that often left him feeling bad and condemned. The piece shows how queer desire becomes conflict and the body its battleground. Unapologetically intimate, it wants to be seen, felt, and endured.

Two bodies trapped. When one tries to escape, the other becomes the jailer.

What if the only way out is through the other person?

A Pelo is not here to please you. It is here to possess you.
