- Summary:
- "In this episode, Rhythmic Bodies: A Walk Through the Performance-Expedition, "Breathings of the moon", we are joined by curator of performance and ecology Lucia Pietroiusti, who interviews the S+T+ARTS artists in residence Diego Delas and Leonor Serrano Rivas to discuss the performance-expedition they developed during their residency in Venice. In his work Mundus Subterraneus, published in 1665, the Jesuit scholar Athanasius Kircher devised a theory on the movement of water, claiming that water moves in an upward motion from the sea to the mountains. Although incorrect, this theory was the departing point for Diego Delas and Leonor Serrano Rivas to explore the notion of water moving upward, the Venetian acqua alta, and the magical rhythms of the lagoon from the perspective of the water itself. This episode focuses on the materiality of their artistic project and its various components: the tides of the Venice Lagoon and its acqua alta, the moon cycles, the rhythm of rowing and the audience's heartbeat, all becoming magical strategies to help us become attuned to the voice of the water."-- provided by distributor.
