Kokoro

"Kokoro" is a singular Japanese word that we can translate as "interior me", but that literally encompasses two words: "mind" and "heart". A unit of the self that can characterise this solo by Luna Cenere, presented as an interior voyage that became a physical path through space. The nude body, with its specific architecture, is exposed and transfigured: it becomes a poetic medium that allows the emergence of elements borrowed from an imaginary world. The body appears hybrid, sometimes plant-like, sometimes animal-like, half woman half animal, swaying or erectile, hunched or majestic...

Luna Cenere was in residence this season at Les Brigittines as part of a partnership of exchanges with CANGO, the National Production Centre in Florence.
