“Soft drapes and tense muscles.Blades, fruit and incense scent.Actors as gymnasts, stage designer and modelsfor the painter.Hanging feathers and weights.Sacred silence is outragedfrom the rhythm of the construction.”The paintings are created before the very eyesof the audience, who is involved in a mysticand sensorial experience.One can feel, taste, touch, breathand see Caravaggio.
The performance Chiaroscurocomes from a long laboratoryexperience, where the leading rolealways belongs to the actor’s body.The final target is not theconstruction of the painting,but the research of a way ofperforming where the body is amere instrument, just as a fabricor a basket. The actor on the stagemoves producing sounds, just likehis actions were part of a score.Each gesture depends from a trainof gears and belongs to a sequenceof absolutely necessary movements.Nothing happens by chance,nothing is superfluous.The dynamic of the constructionstrikes a balance with the rhythmicsuspension of music, with the freezeframe shot of an action in progress,that forces the muscles to stretch,becoming vivid and pulsating.Caravaggio has been a providentialencounter on our research path.Transforming a laboratory in aperformance we re-discovered akind of theatre where the naturallyimperfect body shows itself througha prissy play of light and shadow,that unveils things instead ofshowing them.Just like in Caravaggio’s paintings,a burst of light comes to us for gracereceived.
