by and with LARA RUSSO
Music Filippo Bonelli

The investigation starts from the contact with trunks and branches, a possible relationship between body and material. Then, the dance imbues with the wood’s shapes, sounds, and visible and tactile qualities, becoming a dancing body.

A landscape in which the natural elements spur the dance to search for echoes and dissonances. A metaphysical space rises that welcomes images in constant search of openings and dialogues.
