ANAMNESI

performance

"Anamnesi" is inspired by an old theory belonging to Plato and consists in the longest lapse of memory a human being can experience: forgetfulness of the ancestral knowledge, also called the law of universe.

It is a state of awareness which has been forgotten at the moment of birth through the process of endless reincarnation. On the other hand, Plato describes the possibility of awakening from it, by reviving the ancestral spirit within the self. This unintentional consciousness can emerge only if there's a will to abandon the comfort zone and to face the unexpected. Only at this point life and death can be seen as small transitions of an endless process of growth and eternity can be perceived as the core of the present time.

Anamnesi explores the body language in a structured society and looks for moments of spontaneous composition. Anamnesi explores the discomfort with different states of contact and playfulness. It is a participatory experience.

The performance combines dance, live sound and fashion design aiming to reflect on notions of control, community and self power.
