At the heart of its research are accessibility, participation and the creation of temporary communities through art.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">As a company artist and performer, <strong>Clara Storti<\/strong> explores the relationship between the body, materials and the urban landscape, envisioning artistic experiences capable of temporarily transforming everyday places into spaces for encounter, play and shared imagination.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">With <strong>CARTA BLU | BLUE BACK<\/strong>, <strong>Clara Storti<\/strong> invites audiences to observe urban space from a different perspective. Through circus, play and interaction with the surrounding environment, the performance transforms everyday places into landscapes to be imagined, engaging residents and passers-by of all ages in a shared experience that explores the following questions:<br \/>\nHow can urban space become a space for imagination? How can we look anew at what we see every day?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In Florence, this project takes place in District 4, at the Pignone Gasometer, one of the most distinctive landmarks in this part of the city. It consists of an artistic residency in public space and a site-specific performance.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Clara Storti<\/strong> is a contemporary circus artist, performer, creator and set designer. Her training has followed two parallel paths, in the visual arts and circus practice: in 2009, she graduated from the Brera Academy of Fine Arts and went on to specialise in aerial rope through training in Italy and abroad.<br \/>In 2011, she co-founded <strong>Quattrox4<\/strong>, a Milan-based centre dedicated to research, training and the promotion of contemporary circus, where she works as an artist and cultural project designer. She is the creator and performer of several projects, including <em>Piani in bilico<\/em>, <em>Dall\u2019alto<\/em> and <em>Gretel<\/em>, her first aerial rope solo, presented at Romaeuropa Festival in 2021.
