A contemporary dance piece inspired by the ox trials, known as IDI-PROBAK in the Basque Country, which reflects on the link between man and animal. It offers an oneiric lens onto a rural world full of fictitious poetic landscapes which come together and coexist with a recognisable sonorous space, under the gaze and perspective of the ox.
The harshness of the work and the physicality of the animal, the struggle for survival and the longed-for freedom are part of the concepts which make Ojo de Buey ask the question:
Who is the human and who is the animal?

Photography Maider Jimenez, Estudio LirondaPROYECTO LARRUA is a dance project directed by Jordi Vilaseca and Aritz López which has its own language, which connects styles, physicality and disciplines (Breakdance and Contemporary Dance). After working for other companies at the national and international level, they joined forces in 2015 in order to reveal their particular vision of the dance as a dance which finds similarities in the physicality and emotion between contemporary dance and breakdance, understanding it as one single dance.
Since its creation in 2014, they have toured Central America, France and Spain, forming part in 2017 of the Sarea network and “A cielo Abierto” (In open sky), as well as winning the emerging company award at the 2016 Umore Azoka.
