Balletten er del af Cecilia Bengolea nye værk Deary Steel, 2022. Deary Steel udforsker de sociale og materielle dimensioner af den industrielle æra og periodens indvirken på vores nutidige post-industrielle kultur og hvordan vi bruger vores kroppe i dag. I 1930’erne, mellem to krige, skabte en gruppe pre-hippies og naturistdansere i Monte Verita et fællesskab i deres søgen efter at komme i pagt med naturen. Deres dans er gen-koreograferet af Bengolea i Deary Steel, som en koreografi af elementerne. Videoen viser balletdansere fra Lyon School of Ballets kroppe i bevægelse når de performer ritualer, der bruger ild til at styrke og helbrede. I værket sættes billeder af et aktivt europæisk stålværk i dialog med fundne optagelser fra Manga og kinesisk medicin samt arkivoptagelser, der skildrer kvindelige industriarbejderes kampe og deres venners og families fritidsaktiviteter i begyndelsen af det tyvende århundrede.
Balletten bliver danset af Caroline Maquignon, Mathis Nour og Magdalen Wood.

Dancer, choreographer and artist Cecilia Bengolea’s Deary Steel explores the social and materialistic dimensions of the genesis of the industrial era, and its outcome on post-industrial culture and bodily practises. In 1930’s, between the two wars, in Monte Verita a group of pre-hippie naturist dancers created a community in the quest of harmonizing their actions with nature. Their dance is rechoreographed by Bengolea in Deary steel as an alluring choreography of the elements. It shows the moving bodies of ten ballet dancers from the Lyon school of Ballet, superimposing depictions of rituals using fire used to empower and heal.
