Onde

A show by Simona Bertozzi
Italy | duration: 60’

2 shows for this event

Relying on the energetic rush of young performers, Onde is inspired by The Waves, Virginia Woolf’s famous play-poem, from which it takes the idea of the continuous flow of images and the need to regenerate its rhythm. The performance is shaped through a choreographic and musical act that opens to the present of bodies that stretch and float between ecstasy and animal movements. The dialogue between anatomical and acoustic volumes multiplies the perspectives of encounter and, just like the propagation of shock waves, it blurs the contours of individual actions.  Rhythm, effort, but also sinking, escape, and withdrawal.

Simona Bertozzi practices a dance in which choreography constitutes a territory of happenings, a complex system inhabited by the body. After dancing for Virgilio Sieni, she founded Compagnia Simona Bertozzi | Cultural Association Nexus in 2008. She won the GD’A choreography competition in 2007, was selected in 2008 for Spring Forward of the European network Aerowaves and took part in the international project Choreoroam, supported by British Council/The Place, Dansateliers/Rotterdam and Bassano Opera Festival.
