Being dressed up without knowing where to go: destroying the linearity of time, the beginning and the end, the possibility for the body to find the memory of the gesture. Exhaustion is a way out, contact is a form of protection to escape the gaze of an observer that runs over the bare and sacred surfaces of the bodies without embarrassment and without provocation. Everything is there, in being able to glimpse the abstract in the concrete and the real in abstraction, a form of warmth in the pale tints of the bodies and in the soft lighting. And the body reacts to all this. (Matteo Antonaci)
