Míriam Cano and Eduard Escoffet will be performing through two aesthetic proposals that, as different as they are, know how to approach each other and talk to each other. Because this is how one gets closer, when one separates and looks at each other from afar. Hence the prefix that indicates the reversal of the direction in which they come together: instead of anchoring, they will pull up the anchor.
