Synopsis
White carpet, as a white sheet of paper
on which the dark silhouettes map out
in a movement the first lines of a
sketch… On these lines, the group
builds up, leaving room to the light. The
bodies assert themselves becoming
selfish, neglecting the group. The
human being has eyes only for himself,
until conflicting himself. How far will he
take it before understanding that his
peacefulness will only come from
others?
Note of Intent
L’IniZio – Italian for the beginning – takes as starting point Michelangelo’s Genesis, painted on its way to
the Sistine Chapel. This fresco will serve as a foundation for a reflection on human condition – or the
destructive tendency for human kind to break every imposed rule. The center piece on the canvas (rf:
The Original Sin) illustrates it: the human being in its eternal Eden chooses to ignore the one and only
simple rule, symbolized in the most ordinary object.. As the fresco, L’IniZio is divided in three main parts, themselves divided in three parts as well. First, we
see the notion of the individual in the group, in osmosis with the others until the dancer slowly affirms
himself until he becomes selfish, gravitating around the others without making concessions. Various
musical universes - going from Arvo Pärt to Miserere by Allégri, as well as more electronic sounds, fuel
these three parts. Music to which the body gets attached, detached, with power and lightness, and as it
comes back they become an osmosis. This body, present on L’IniZio, combines and intertwines,
affirms, by it’s own individuality, a rough energetic and in vogue Hip Hop. Each interpreter gets a taste of the liberty to express himself in this Hip Hop dance, between mastering
pure techniques and opening to numerous inspirations.
On the white floor, the light draws out multiplying shadows, interweaving and gradually coloring,
accompanying the bodies in a route pursuing the movement that creates a color palette.
L’IniZio – humanity’s vibrant fresco.
