Two hands and the universe of a sewing basket. Handmade articles have their own personality, hands as part of a being, as leading players, as special beings that create movement, emotion and life. A drifting basket, a trip… New life emerges from any corner, from any basket. VIDA (life) is a non verbal piece of theatre for an actor and objects, which tells us about the implacable and constant passage of time. Characters of the story are born, grow up, reproduce and die before our eyes, which makes VIDA a metaphor of our own lives, always moving forward, without any chance to turn back.
Javier Aranda, actor and puppet master, was trained at the Theatre School of Zaragoza. He has been working with different theatre groups for more than 20 years: Teatro del Temple, Arbolé Theatre, Gayarre Theatre, Drama Centre of Aragón. He has taken part in various short films. He alternates acting with his work as a puppet-master at the Javier Aranda Company, where he carries out personal research on the hand puppet and its relationship with the puppeteer. http://www.javieraranda.es/
