The creation, while welcoming the title of Wagner’s opera and inspired by the striking moments of the libretto, is not a return to of the opera’s classic. Even having the background of the theme, the work develops its own sensory journey, in the Myth, outside the conventional narrative, generating questions and approaches of interest to the choreographer – the irrationality, the desire, the dependence of the human being on love, the woman (a descent to his feminine and erotic condition).
The creation observes the female body as territory of expression, as catalyst of pulses, reservoir of memories of the various parts that constitute it, in the glimpse of an anatomy where the gesture appears linked to the reverbaration, visual, tactile and emotional memory.
