NO TIME NO SPACE
by CORPO CONTINUO

Our performance is a developing experience based on visual contact and the empathic listening of bodies.

CORPO CONTINUO is a performing arts group created in 2016 by Sofia Sguerri, Caterina Testi and Maria Cerbasi.
Our research is focused on exploring human dynamics in relation to different spaces and times. As the rhythm of our lives is becoming faster, and virtual connections are taking the places of real human relationships, we aim to create space where authentic connections reclaim their importance. A meditative state is augmented and supported by the sound the audience and the performers will listen to. For best effect, the audience can download this soundtrack from the festival website and listen with headphones.
