When I was little, I had a ritual: I liked to be alone somewhere in my house, and ask myself: “Who am I?” Have you ever asked yourself that question? This work is an invitation to explore together the mystery of who we are—and perhaps to encounter ourselves.
Duration: 4 minutes per performance
Since 2011, Omayra Martínez Garzón has been working with Lambe Lambe theatre, a miniature theatrical form performed inside a small box for one spectator at a time. In this intimate, close-up encounter, she combines puppetry, object theatre, and holographic projections to create poetic microcosmos in which the smallest things speak of the greatest matters.
She holds a degree in Performing Arts from the Universidad Nacional de San Martín and completed postgraduate studies in Object Theatre, Interactivity, and New Media at the Universidad Nacional de las Artes in Buenos Aires. She currently works as an actress, puppeteer, and performer, as well as creates scenographic objects. Her performances have been presented at festivals in Germany, Romania, Argentina, Chile, France, Brazil, and Spain. She has also led Lambe Lambe theatre workshops in Colombia, Argentina, Germany, Romania, and Spain.
