The artwork, titled 'Las paredes danzan' (The Walls Dance), now occupies the lobby of Nave 11 at Centro Danza Matadero in Madrid, turning this transitional space into an immersive scenography. The creation by the renowned artist Suso33, recipient of the Gold Medal for Merit in Fine Arts 2025, aims to enhance the audience's pre-performance experience with a dynamic and enveloping composition.

As reported by the Madrid City Council, the intervention engages with the surrounding architecture, intending to imbue the lobby with a scenic character. The mural features dancing bodies rendered with continuous lines and painterly gestures, establishing a visual dialogue between movement, space, emptiness, and cadence. "These anthropomorphic forms that occupy the mural make it vibrate with their own intrinsic musicality, with rhythm and harmony," the artist explained.

'Las paredes danzan' draws inspiration from various dance disciplines and significant figures in dance history, integrating technique, precision, and expressiveness within a composition conceived as a visual choreography. Each stroke functions as an unfolded choreographic phrase, transforming the mere physical transit to the hall into an entry into the language of dance.

For this work, Suso33 drew upon the relationship between birth, cosmos, and body in space proposed by Pascal Quignard in 'The Origin of Dance', as well as cave paintings and the concept of the cave as a symbolic space. He also incorporated influences from urban culture and the link between dance and graffiti, referencing the work of Henry Chalfant.

The artist, born in Madrid in 1973, is a prominent figure in national graffiti, urban art, and muralism. His career spans action painting, muralism, installation, video art, performance, and scenography. His works are part of collections in museums such as the Reina Sofía, Caixa Forum, and Thyssen-Bornemisza.

Suso33 has contributed to over fifty stage designs for institutions including the Teatro Real, the Centro Dramático Nacional, and the Compañía Nacional de Danza. His connection to dance dates back to his early artistic endeavors, where gesture and movement were central expressive tools. He has collaborated with artists such as Sara Baras, Nacho Duato, and Rocío Molina.
