Huella at The Cockpit

At the edge of ecological collapse, Huella unfolds around an ambiguous waterfall carrying the memory of water, as new geologies emerge. Through eco-poetic symbolism, a danced installation-performance of textural and flamenco soundscapes traverses dissonant yet porous, solastalgic bodies and landscapes, entangled in the waterfall’s trace. Opening onto an uncertain time between an altered present and a future archive, the waterfall holds play, intimacies, rituals, human and animal passages, alongside contaminated sediments and materials that persist. Huella emerges from the lived tension of perceiving the alteration of the living world while continuing to inhabit everyday life. It resonates with solastalgia: the feeling that arises as a familiar environment transforms while we are still living within it. The narrative is embodied through a movement language drawing inspiration from contemporary improvisation, the geometries of Vogue and flamenco aesthetics. Fragments from Lorca’s Suites and Libro de poemas also appear as poetic undercurrents. Isadora is a French-Tunisian artist working across movement, performance and installation, born in Paris and based in London. As a Vogue performer and member of the Iconic House of Milan (as Isadora Milan), she walks balls internationally. She develops an experimental movement language inspired by New Way Vogue, Arms Control, contemporary improvisation and flamenco. Her hybrid practice seeks to unsettle dominant perceptions of feminine representation and embodiment, while increasingly engaging with ecological transformation and with human and more-than-human experiences. She also works with costume and objects as spaces for transformation and play.
