Concrete matter is a game of meanings that has to do with the foundational, with the realm of touch, of the tactile images, deepening in the understanding of the body as a matter (main material), and with our relation with our mothers to elucidate our relationship with pleasure, its unfoldings and revelations when it comes to the performative context. 

The show deals with the mother-daughter relationship, focusing on points of reference and women’s bodies, in this case those of the performers of Los Detectives and those of their mothers, with whom they share the stage. The work is interwoven with layers of references. On one hand, feminist artists of the seventies like Hannah Wilke, Pauline Oliveros and Yvonne Rainer. And on the other hand, the text of Anton Chekhov’s The Three Sisters, which speaks to us about the impossibility of realization, and made us wonder about our own fulfillment and relationship with our vocation.
