Venerdì>Robinson

The work, conceived for the occasion, is inspired by the novel by the French writer Michel Tournier «Friday or the Limbo of the Pacific», which in turn rereads the famous novel “Robinson Crusoe” by Defoe. If in Defoe Robinson Crusoe was in fact the white hero who civilizes the poor savage Friday, in Tournier’s reading the perspective is reversed. It is in fact Friday who plays a main role and guides Crusoe towards a complete regression to the “natural” state, and therefore to an authentic and primitive existential dimension.

The encounter with the other and the “explosion” of consolidated boundaries, proposed by Tournier’s work, also inspire the work of mk and Trevisani. Here the dialogue between art and dance, played on the distance between images and bodies in movement, invites us to consider the encounter with the other as a space of crossing, a border area and at the same time the construction of a world.
