W/\M | project
The score of this duet emerged during the stages of the project Genealogia and was studied separately during a creative residency at the Teatro Sperimentale in Pesaro (IT), with the support of AMAT Marche.
In this work I continue my research on the body, posture and gesture, experimenting a narrative and compositional overturning, inserting new dramaturgical elements into my poetics. Unlike previous works, in which the narration was built around a body or more bodies and their interior landscape, in this case the desire to investigate the relationship between two bodies and two individualities emerged. Always in the wake of the rigor and poetics that guide my research, I have the curiosity to de-construct and bring my practice into an even more performative dimension, turning my gaze towards ironic and pop nuances.
The title W / \ M is composed of graphic signs and letters that enter into relation with each other, like mirror elements. They symbolize duality, space-between, overturning. This relationship is translated visually and choreographically into an architectural investigation of the bodies, observing their characteristics and posture in the spatial interaction but above all in the relationship between the two performers Davide Tagliavini and Michele Scappa.
