- Circling motion/motif- cyclical, never
ending, combining all body parts,

pathways, circular. No start, no end to
hardships of life on farming land.
Cyclical nature of the seasons, of the
day. Generational cyclical nature

- Setting
- Use of stick fence props- 'enclosed
garden'. This encloses the dancers into
a space, restricting them from the whole
stage. Representing the restriction they
feel in life due to the farming life. Also
sets the scene and reinforces the
subject matter.

- Movement
- ORGANIZING THE DANCE
- Work has use of motif repetition- symbolic of pain, cyclical
nature of such, and farming life and suffering. Dance
structure- cyclical (starts out at morning/ends at night,
shown through use of lighting, dawn-dusk). Transitions-
various sections represent various relationships. Cyclical
motif repetition, reaping, all tie into various sections
(changing duos etc) this creates a unifying thread. Through
repetition, choices of lighting and costume (females having
same dress type but different colours, males different colour
shirt- same but varied experience) and use of music, unity
is created.

- INTERPRETATION OF THE WORK
- Context: The Spanish Civil War (1800's).
Oppression of the Catalan (Catalonia)
Country. Hardships of the economy. The
Spanish Government only depicting
Spain in a certain way (bullfights) not
actually addressing all cultural aspects of
it, especially Catalonian farming life.
- Genre:
Classical/contemporary and
Spanish/folk training.
- Subject matter: the hardships of
rural/farming life, particularly of that in
Spain. The cyclical nature of hardship
- Significance: work is important and
seminal as it showcases the different
unadvertised side to Catalonian folk life.
It was Nacho Duato's first work, shows
Spain in a different light to Civil
War/dictatorship. Showcases the
ongoing culture of Spain. Showcases
the hardships of rural life, which are still,
and will always be, relevant as it is
dependent on the ever changing state of
the land.
