...meaning is always something that people make. It is as if the best anyone can do is to give us an outline sketch, and it is then up to us in what way, and to what extent, we flesh it out and colour it in. ( Guy Claxon)...il significato è sempre qualcosa che le persone attribuiscono. Il meglio che uno può fare è affidarci un contorno abbozzato, e sta a noi decidere in che modo, e in quale proporzione, renderlo vita e colorarlo. ( Guy Claxon)The main trust of the work is for dancers to find their own essence, their own identity and integrity and take that into movement. ( Barbara Mahler)Il principale lavoro per i danzatori è quello di trovare la propria essenza, la propria identità ed integrità e trasferirla nel movimento. ( Barbara Mahler)...what can I say to describe myself in few words... Since I was a child, my big passion has always been dance and I worked hard to translate my big dream of becoming a professional dancer in reality. It's been a magical, enriching and very special journey which give me the chance to travel around Europe, to live in different nice towns (London, Geneve, Vevey), to keep developing myself as artist and person, to meet special people and friends all around the world, to perform beautiful choreographies in so many different stages with different audiences, to express all my feelings through the language of my body, to work with great artists who keep giving me such strong inspiration, to be touched with the intensity of all the emotions given to me by my art, by the power of a lovely image, by the deepness of an inspiring book, by the incredible empathy with the music, by people around me...everything so special always part of me.ARTISTIC CV FOR DETAILED VERSION CHECK ON THE BLOGShe studied for 8 years at ACADEMY OF DANCE DOMENICHINO from Piacenza directed by Giuseppina Campolonghi, Michela Arcelli and Elisabetta Rossi.
