Luisa Pisetta Ravanelli – dis\spiri
My desire is the source of pain of my family.The perversion I am facing is an embodied absence of the narrative about the natural path.To avoid perdition here I have to turn my breathing pace to an alien – yet too familiar – rhythm. I have the feeling I’m undoing myself when I repeat this pattern. So I get lost, I fade away, I hide myself. I try again. It feels as if the material of my organism is missing in the words I know. It seems I don’t exist, I’m against nature, Wait.
If I am not part of the nature, where am I? Am I a vacuum? (1)
During her residency at Lake Studios, Luisa Pisetta Ravanelli aims to bring into the choreographic sphere a space of unsaid as a container of a whole universe – of pain, joy and what’s in between. Her quest is to communicate through neglected layers of reality between human beings. To do so, the artist expands her body shaping movements around the invisible architecture of intensities/vibrations/forces/sensations/intuitions/feelings/gazes/breezes in the room. In this work, vacuums are processed as prolific gaps that calls for new horizons. She uses a language of discomfort, ambiguity and desire.
