UCHUY LALE

LLAQTAVILLE
2027, 30 minutes

_{^{In the Quechua cosmovision, places are beings. Mountains watch, rivers listen, cities are alive. Cusco (where the artist is originary from) taught Laleshka this before she knew what it was — like learning to recognize a voice. Brussels (artist’s current home) taught it back to her later, more slowly, in a quieter voice.}}

_{^{For her first solo show, the boundary between the mystical and the surreal becomes almost invisible. On stage, Laleshka inhabits the aerial rope — no longer an apparatus, but a place. A narrow, vertical living space. Climbing as a way of inhabiting. Climbing as a way of crossing. Climbing as a way of disappearing and reappearing higher up.
Premiering in summer 2027.}}
