A dreamlike experience that takes place at twilight, when the boundaries between night and day, waking and dreaming, dissolve.
An invitation into a suspended moment where time seems to vanish, perception and imagination come together for a corporeal dramaturgy that emerges from the state of presence.
This multidisciplinary performance explores the vulnerability of the body, an act of embodiment that plunges into the most bodily emotions. Far from a simple expression, it metamorphoses into a profound journey. Breaking through the invisible barriers that society imposes on the body, the audiences is invited to rethink their perceptions.
Playing with the notion of temporality, AT THE END OF THE NIGHT TIME HAS FALLEN ASLEEP subtly blurs the boundaries between the worlds of the visible and invisible, real and dreamlike, animate and inanimate.
The transitions between the everyday and the imaginary, between the individual and the collective, make the boundaries fluid and permeable. It's a moment of transformation when we become “other”, a chance to enter an elsewhere.
The performer offers an amplified mirror of the public's perceptions, imagination and inner filters.
A thinking, feeling body weaving links between the world and others becomes the receptacle for the desires and dreams of the collective.
This partecipatory work elicits a collective intimacy, creating a temporary community that shares fleeting experiences and sensations.These moments are transformed into a ritual, inviting participants to cross the boundaries of reality to immerse themselves in the imaginary, where, at the end of the night, time has fallen asleep.
Movement, poetry, video and sound merge to create a dreamlike universe, an experience that lingers between worlds, inciting a gentle abandonment to otherness.
Ode to a body
I was born the day that I began to move
My hands learned me to draw infinite landscapes and feet leaded me through the lines
Misura del mondo
The space in between collarbones
Jaws
My elbow mesure of the distance in between your ear and your shoulder
Bones under the skin
Blooded feet
Each fall deeper deeper into life
Strong legs roots
Discovering
The conjunction of spine and pelvis
All the way up to the atlas
My skin - plasma e catarsi
Eight counts the time of existence
