Eco del Mondo
Eco del Mondo
Eco del Mondo is a performance between theater, dance, sound and visual art. Against the backdrop of the riots in the square, amidst the voices and sounds of the square, in the echo of the square, a Harlequin, or at least, the one that each of us recognizes as the famous character from the commedia dell’arte, but who, revised and corrected to the present day, does not present himself to the audience in his bubbly and bold version, but rather a resigned and reflective silhouette. Taking a cue from Pablo Picasso’s painting “Harlequin in the Mirror,” the physical possibilities and postures of the character imprinted in Picasso’s canvas will be explored, in an attempt to bring him out of the canvas to reflect on the condition of us humans before the crossroads of life. Reviving Harlequin “one and trine” will be a dancer, a puppet and a marionette player who will dialogue with the soundscape and the remains of an imaginary metaphysical city in an attempt to reassemble its pieces.
