As part of Romaeuropa Festival 2021

Esercizi per un manifesto poetico (Exercises for a poetic manifesto) is Collettivo MINE‘s debut work, created when the company was founded.
The manifesto is written through movement, in a dance practice composed by five performers.
The individual’s breath and the group’s unison merge together. Bodilily plasticity becomes inspiration for the danced language and for a collective poetics.
The piece revolves around a single staged action, both powerfuland clearly structured, which is a tool for shared writing, capable of generating a unified body. A hypnotic and fascinating choreography which investigates the co-presence of rigorous scores and of a vibrant and welcoming affective performance.

Collettivo MINE is the result of the artistic encounter between Francesco Saverio Cavaliere, Siro Guglielmi, Fabio Novembrini, Roberta Racis, Silvia Sisto.
MINE is a collective experiment of creation that aims to carry out a research work focused on sharing practices and languages.
