"Play the stairs like you play the piano"

Critical text

by André de Sá Moreira

The artist traverses the staircase like a score, without searching for the logic of the ascent or descent. Each step becomes a note, each hesitation a setback. The accelerated music transforms the scene into a joyful mechanism. The body wobbles, half-stumbles, but never falls.

It's a clumsy but precise dance, a silent comedy that maintains its restraint. The staircase is no longer a functional tool; it becomes an instrument. Walking is no longer a necessity, only a comedy.

He improvises a shaky score. The staircase transforms into a stage: each step becomes a surface of uncertainty. The reference to Jerry Lewis appears implicitly, like a tender nod to a perfectly controlled clumsiness.
