Spanish Premiere


Massa de Sentidos (translates Mass of Senses) is a powerful performance of enormous, evocative power. Levi drew inspiration from "Dart Object", a work by Marcel Duchamp, to explore the relation between inside and outside, using different materials, objects and her own body.  Even if, at first sight, Massa de Sentidos seems to be a very formal and visual performance, it is a sensitive reflection on femininity.
