WHAT a COMPOSTATURE is THIS
Titanne Bregentzer and Maya Dalinsky
Edgar & Me
Charlotte Blackburn
Charlotte has been writing to Edgar Garcia for four years, via email and letters. Her mother didn’t want her too incase he got out and murdered her, her friends thought it was bizarre but fascinated. Edgar is on death row for murder, though they have never discussed the crime he committed, Charlotte has found it out all online. The Edgar in those articles, the Edgar eight years ago; isn’t the Edgar she has known and cared for ove the past four years. Her Edgar is kind and caring, he’s an artist and a poet, and he’s a good friend. This performance depicts their relationship through his letters to her, the stories they have shared and his past from what she has read online. During this performance she invites her audience into their world. Telling them their story, taking them on their journey. This though provoking piece explores the lives of death row inmates in Terre Haute, alongside this friendship

Mask
Pablo Alvez Artinprocess
"A stub performance influenced by the entry "masque" in "Dictionaire du Corps" (ed. Michaela Marzanno) and "Totality and Infinity" by Emmanuel Levinas. Masks don't only conceal. They frame. They frame what its user shows, what the public can see, but also what its user sees. Masks have an impact on stereoscopical sight altogether. Just like life, sight is at the same time binded and released."

RIGHT ON!
Daniela Marcozzi with the support of Peter Rose
RIGHT ON!,
expression taken from american slang, is an exhortation to strength, action; it is a “motivation-to-the-life-in-spite-of-everything”. takes inspiration from the sharp and precise sensations of anger, helplessness, and strong fear that one has by facing some controversial aspects of justice.
RIGHT ON! is an homage to the existences of people (close friends) who demonstrated a rooted human strength in spite of they being subject to the process of their ideas, from the Italian legal order (anti-terrorism italian law 270 bis).
