INVISIBILIA is a suspended space of interaction between the human body, the plant body, and the technological body for the natural space.
It is a site-specific work that arises from the intrinsic relationship with a given place and the ecosystem that inhabits it and thus changes radically each time.
It uses the languages of contemporary dance, live electronic music, biodata sonification and drawing.
It consists of two interconnected, complementary but autonomous elements:
INVISIBILIA_danza, performance
INVISIBILIA_ascolto, permanent sound installation
INVISIBILIA_danza
Two human bodies and plant bodies share a space of interaction in the ethereal surrender to the invisible and the subtle.
The perfomance is constructed within and together with an ecosystem through careful observation, meditation, theoretical speculation, drawing, improvisations of movement, sound, listening, use of voice, use of electroacoustic transduction (microphones) and biodata sonification technologies.
INVISIBILIA_ascolto
Sound installation made for and together with specific ecosystems. It is an invitation to enter into a relationship with places with time, calm and willingness.
The listener is invited to approach each place by following the positioning directions provided by the signs placed at the site and then indulge in listening to the sound tracks made with and for that ecosystem.
INVISIBILIA_ascolto is in Florence at Parco delle Cascine close to P.I.A and in Valtellina in the forest of Castellaccio close to ORA_Orobie Residenze d'artista.
Virtually visit the installation:
What changes inside and outside of me if I approach a large 100-year-old holm oak tree in the middle of a grove rather than a towering plant on the riverbank?
Is it possible to indulge in a relationship between our physical body, the subtle body, the sound body, the plant bodies, and the space that accommodates them?
