|
A project by

| Production: Kinkaleri In collaboration with: Teatro Studio, Scandicci (I) and Monty Theatre, Antwerpen (B). Subsidized by: The Italian ministry of culture; the Tuscany Region |
Two dancers wearing stereophonic headphones into an amplified place carry out a choreographic structure strictly organized in unison . A dj at his console defines the acoustic quality of the dynamic event, by processing: the amplified sound of the bodies, the sound of the room, the musical composition the dancers listen on their headphones, the silence. There’s no music. The structure makes use of classical elements clinging with masterly skill to a definite rhythmic articulation that is always a direct connection between an organized movement and its reproducibility. Such a connection is put into crisis by a substantial variation in the level of the acoustic output; to alter the level of the acoustic perception means to operate a linguistic shift that completely changes the relationship to the deep-set perception each person has got with choreography. The movement takes part in a dynamic play giving up the numerical and aesthetical relation with the time, thus relieving itself of the sense of the representation. |
| The choreography
unfolds in all its mysterious technical harshness. What remains to one’s eyes is the organic condition of the “dancing body” totally laid bare in its residual production of uncontrollable rejects, in its fallibility as a “subject”. The composition literally pours out as an indissoluble unit and directly joining a deaf look that is drawn inside a new context of perception, almost as if the witnessing spectator was asked for a deeper and more private closeness, for a different relation between inside and outside. Everything sinks in the surface of the evidence once again. |
