La Ola Flotante

The asturian collective LA XATA LA RIFA, explores performance art, dance and music; and were invited to present a work of art during the two days of the Festival OCUPAI!. Premiering in Portuguese soil, the collective performed two versions of the show “La Ola Flotante” (The Floating Wave), a project inspired by a floating wooden platform that will summon there maining artists of the Festival (locals and foreigners) to interact with it, fluidly and organically.

La Xata La Rifa is an asturian scenic collective laboratory, coordinated by Mónica Cofiño. The collective organizes the Festival La Xata La Rifa in small asturian villages, as well tours, through crowdfunding where the prize is a cow, throughout european/american cities and villages. La Xata La Rifa has created a platform of floating artists as also many other artistic projects connected to natural, cultural and regional elements. “La Ola Flotante” is an art piece that combines music, theater, dance while floating through aquatic landscapes: ports, rivers, bays, lakes and beaches; always with the necessary adaptations to the specific contexts using mechanisms/methods of collective improvisation.
