L’arcipelago

Primo studio residenza artistica danza

di Maria Montesi

 

L’arcipelago è una performance che mette in scena un mito sull’origine delle isole Eolie. Al centro della storia è la particolare relazione tra i vulcani e le emozioni umane che sarà tradotta ispirandosi al sistema descritto dalla medicina tradizionale Taoista. Il movimento dei corpi nello spazio sarà accompagnato da una composizione musicale dal vivo e da alcune proiezioni video. Durante la serata l’artista condividerà una tappa del percorso di ricerca avviato assieme ad altri/e quattro interpreti durante la sua residenza presso MAD.

 

Ingresso libero fino a esaurimento posti.
