SYNOPSIS
This new choreographic creation tries to identify the forms of the relationship betwee performer, space, and imagination, trying to lead the viewer on a journey into the density of matter and at the same time into a perceptive and imaginative elsewhere.
The dancing body is positioned in an empty, passable space, a space that becomes intimate, and changeable, in continuous adaptation along a labyrinthine and powerful movement. The dancer’s gaze opens to the image, some other place, and reverberates in Spartaco Cortesi’s
live music score.
The choreographic device leads to a body that is surprised by the movement and is surprised, distant but present in an inconsistent but visionary space. The performer offers a look that seeks a hyper-reality, involving and leading the passenger’s spectators in an empathic process between reminiscence and prediction. In the choreographic writing, lightness, disorientation, vitality, and carnality emerge, a fragile
and athletic body that acts in search of coordinates, and aims at escaping one’s spirit, through a private, feminine language and narration that involves the viewer.
