ALIENTOS

Wade Matthews - electronic synthesis

Alessandra Rombolá - flutes/cheramic objects

Li Thanh Tíen - movement/sound poetry

Valerie Metevier - dance

SINGING DANCERS, VIBRATING MUSICIANS, POEMS IN FRENCH, ITALIAN AND VIETNAMESE, SOUND IN FULL ACTION. WHETHER WE ARE MAKING MUSIC, MOVING OR RECITING, WE DANCE WITH OUR BREATH.

ALIENTOS IS NOT GUIDED BY CONVENTIONS OF DIALOG OR TRADITIONAL ROLES, IT IS UNITED BY FIELDS OF INVISIBLE YET REAL FORCES THAT LINK, BUT DO NOT BIND, THE FOUR MEMBERS OF THE GROUP. EACH PERFORMANCE IS DIFFERENT, AS EACH IS ROOTED IN THE HERE AND NOW.

”NOW” IS UNDERSTOOD AS A MANIFESTATION OF CHANGE, WHILE “HERE” IS NOT ONLY SPACE, BUT ALSO ITS NATIVE RESONANCES AND SOUNDS. THIS, THEN, IS A WORK OF SOVEREIGN ENERGIES, NOT HIERARCHICAL FORMS, A HIGHLY FOCUSED BUT PROTEAN FLOW OF SHARED CREATION.
