Studi per M. After a long process of study that saw Tansini working between France, Germany and Italy, comes Studies for M., inspired by Marcel Proust’s famous passage on how sensory experiences can collapse past and present, awakening undomesticated bodies. Fragments of the world – distances, colors, silences, noises, voices, skins – continually assemble and reassemble, creating moments of lucidity and dissolution, in a balance between the raw and the refined, the formal and the wild. Performers transform architecture, props, and movement into a living dialogue between precision and improvisation, creating an intense and engaging experience for audiences who find themselves experiencing dance as a tool close to the unsaid that bodies emanate and places conceal.
