DUMBEST GIRL ALIVE
is a reading/short performance developed as an ongoing performance cycle rooted in writing.
through original texts and re-writings, the project reflects on dance and art, and on their legacies: inherited gestures, discourses, violences, fantasies, desires. it questions what we receive from these histories, what they allow us to do, and what they prevent us from becoming in the art we make today.
each iteration is conceived in direct relation to the place that hosts it and to the audience it addresses. DUMBEST GIRL ALIVE is thought as a whole: writing the text, designing and making the costume, shaping the scenography. the work adapts itself to every invitation, shifting according to context, space, and public.
