INFO ABOUT THE PROJECT:
Space & Infinito
Work and Performance
Dance and poetry. In both the usual man, the archaic and the contemporary dialogue and mirror each other.
This is the inspiration behind the Space & Infinity Performance Inspiration on music by Vivaldi and contemporary authors.
The idea of ​​a collective pièce where the choral becomes a journey towards suggestions and visions, individuals represent the most intimate part of Poetry.

Movements that go from hearing to heart, from sound to sense and vice versa, and from mind to shiver

From an interview to the Poet Davide Rondoni

Infinity is not a philosophical problem or literary.

It is above all human, existential. He, Leopardi, says: “where the soul finds pleasure, it abhors that it is finished.”
If we do not feel sorry when a thing that we like (a beloved life, a good experience, a good thing) ends we would not have the problem of the infinite . Which therefore concerns and urges us from within our own human nature. It is a problem that identifies our nature more than any other identity that we sew on ourselves, often following fashions and dominant thought. Leopardi adds: not only the cognitive faculty or that of loving but not even the imaginative is able to conceive something infinite, but only of the indefinite and of conceiving indefinitely “.
Celebrating the Infinite is therefore celebrating something that concerns us all. Which also miraculously unites opposing parts of Italy. And that is not a “thing” or even an “idea”.
