platform A35

The foundations of the work are actions guided by efficiency, practicality and memories. Bodies are concentrated, attentive, completely focussed and therefore a sense of being exposed emerge from the work.
Starting from phisical and visual memories, we are placing bodies in a state of listening by trying to recreate specific actions.
We become unsure, we hesitate, everything becomes uncertain and we constantly fail and recover.
In this state of being we feel sorrounded by silence.
We start feeling intimacy (“In-ti-mo”) with our bodies and mind, feeling  open with our self and the other.
“In-ti-mo” allows to translate this personal state of mind, where bodies are suspended in a limb, waiting to understand, explore and execute, into a relation that gives space to complicity with the dancing partner.

platform A35 develops in the new space of Fabbrica Europa, PARC ex Scuderie Granducali in Florence, an unconventional place.
The project is based on the idea of presenting young choreographers, Italian and not only, whose research shows new creative processes, but also the changing society that is necessarily reflected in them.
