16th of september 2017 Vetrina della giovane danza d’autore, Ammutinamenti Festival, Ravenna (IT)

‘Kokoro’ is a single Japanese word that we can translate as ‘inner self’ but that literally embraces two words, which are ‘mind’ and ‘heart’.

The solo is a personal research of the ‘unicity of the self’. An inner journey that became physic path through the space. The naked body, with it’s specific architecture, is exposed, transfigured, becoming a poetic medium; letting emerge elements that belongs to an imaginary word. These images as roots of a collective consciousness , sublimate in a personal story that becomes, through the scene, a collective experience.
