The stage of the small bar of Porto Ferro and behind it the sea at sunset. The dancers Roberta De Rosa , Mirko Mangiacapra , Giulia Miraglia and Marco Munno will show how nature, with its rhythms, is able to renew itself even after the passage of a catastrophic event of total destruction. It's called "Ground Zero" the dance show that the ARB Dance Company presents on Sunday at 8 pm on the occasion of the 20th author's dance festival "Bodies in movement" , prompting spectators to reflect on the concept of total annihilation and rebirth.
The will is to investigate how, even after the destruction of everything that is known and ordinary, nature manages to start again , even with insufficient tools, without all those previously imposed rules, changing like water that diverts its course encountering an obstacle. Even animals and plants change their structure, everything readapts to the new condition.
The question is: but how could the human being readapt to a different existential condition ? What could our bodies generate if identification with one's own "I" no longer took place with something known, but with elements unpredictable and unknown to us?
The answer is that human beings, placed at a zero level, learn everything from the beginning . The intent is to experience how life regenerates itself in a completely changed space, thus abandoning previous memories and changing itself.
«The performance follows a path of creation and is designed to be carried out outside ordinary spaces, working in contact with natural elements that we know but in which we do not yet recognize ourselves», explain the organizers. «The human body, with its vibration, is in perfect balance and at the same time in contrast with the surrounding environment. The natural environment amplifies listening and allows these waves to align with the vibrations of the surrounding space and the elements found there».
