Of the near past, the memory of the body
sobs latent energies.
They are migrating now
in a different space-time…
From a soliloquy of the soul
to a shared dialogue.
Attempts at a new breath.
Subject and dance – Rossana Abritta
Cello – Ludovica Centracchio
Site-specific performance studio with live music, created from the contents of the virtual work μετά, presented on 23rd October 2020 for Opera Domus D’Autunno – contemporary art exhibition. The Opera Domus project by Carlo Marchetti and Artisti in Transito obtained the contribution of the Lazio Region 2020, the patronage of the Municipality of Frascati and the Aldobrandini Scuderie of Frascati, the patronage of Hangart Fest – Digital Interface of Pesaro directed by Antonio Cioffi.
Thus writes the curator and artist Daniela Zannetti in the exhibition catalogue:
<< In this compendium of artists the element of dance is present with its rhythm of movement, with its pace as in the transit itself of the Artisti in Transito platform, created in 2006 with Ecocity Onlus, and which today is expressed by this new event and the dancers themselves. This is how Rossana Abritta with I μετά, a dance performance created for Opera Domus, describes her emotions during the general rehearsals for the site-specific of the Scuderie Aldobrandini:
“I caught a cell of movement today. It was there in the multiplied universe of events. It beat the rain and doubled the thinness of my porous matter. I felt the grass of his murmur sprouting. Thus, the threshold of the nucleus disappeared in the baptism of the drawer of a rib. And it grew and grew. I picked it, it brought with it the flavor of its origin.”
Here, She seems to be picking up an ancient message. All our experience, and what there is to discover about the future, seems already enclosed in drawers – our ribs – which we only have to open to breathe>>.
