Marina Otero

LOVE ME

  • Dance
German /  English /  With English surtitles /  Spanish /  approx. 55 mins.

In “LOVE ME” Marina Otero stands alone on stage and confronts the violence she carries within her. The first version of the performance premiered in Buenos Aires and marked the artist's departure from the country where she lived until the age of 37 – a separation that launched her new life in Spain. It is the work of a migrant who can not help but move. The country she left no longer exists. By making her body available as an object of research and moving from an individual to a universal perspective, Marina Otero addresses issues that concern us all: Pain, the passing of time, love, death and violence.
