MATERIA CONTINUA

In this choreographic workshop, aimed at people who have built or are in the process of contructing a concrete esperience of being on stage, Irene Russolillo invites one to immerse one’s dance in the vibrant element of vocality: diaphragm exploration, oral exercises that invade space, tunings and dissonances of voices as of bodies.

Beginning from the research and the creative process which gave origin to the show dov’è più profondothe imaginery is enriched by impressions that will be shared on this occasion. Exercises and improvisations will be proposed in which breathing and singing will be the starting point for movement and will amplify the resulting energy. Singing is not only a means for relating to others and of sharing with other human beings but it is also a possible instrument for getting to know others, with which to analyse the concepts of identity and tradition. Each participant will be asked to choose one or more songs that form part of his/her personal history, so as to be able to draw on as a solid source during the time of the workshop.

“In the dim light of this imagining, bodies and voices draw the scene: incarnations of principles and dictates as pleasant as they are ferocious that make us move, while we go through musical, bodily and thought vibrations. I imagine a time in which you try to grip sparks and desires, experiencing mutation and discipline. A time in which it is always possible to pause, take a step back or stand to one side, while a sensitive choral relationship is articulated between one's own body and that of others, during la fatica dell’avanzare”.
