Every step along the way brings a new puzzle to work on.
We constantly face situations to solve. We look for pieces that fit or try to find the right steps to solve them as if they were a puzzle.However, the same problems and the same situations are repeated again and again, and sometimes we feel trapped like a labyrinth without an exit. With intelligence or intuition we manage to unravel the ball in which we feel entangled. Most often, the simplest path is the most accurate.Nil is a metaphor for each person facing themself, a journey through different ways of dealing with a problem and how to manage frustration and restlessness without losing hope.A puppeteer and a puppet trying to solve a riddle, a puzzle. A peculiar relationship where the line is diluted between who is who. A show of details where the gesture is sought as a language to convey emotions in a musical poetic journey.Nil:1) catalan personal name and african river.2)from latin “nihil”, void, nothing.Puzzle:1) Toy, problem or other game designed to amuse by presenting difficulties to be solved by clever thinking or pattient effort.2) A question, matter, or person that is difficult to understand, figure out or explain.
