I versi delle mani

A show by Marta Bellu
(Italy, 30 min.)

2 shows for this event
ph Monia Pavoni

A performance in which body gestures, the physicality of sound and the relationship with space create sounds and dances, like open mouths. In the collaborative work of choreographer Marta Bellu with performer Laura Lucioli and musician Agnese Banti, each movement communicates and creates a relationship with the entire environment. In this interpretation, even hands can declaim poetry through lines, dots and directions while words can become a corporal feature, building a relationship that blends together universal and individual elements. 

The 19/09 performance is followed by a conversation with the artists in dialogue with Marco Mescoli

ph Monia Pavoni
