We kindly invite our audience to the POINT OF YOU meeting after the show to discuss thoughts and feelings! Organized by Thought Generator.
MATERIA aims to discover, explore and witness the aliveness of one material: polystyrene.
Object manipulation is taken from a different perspective: giving space to the objects themselves rather than the manipulator, and playing with the balance between these two subjects. The piece tries not to force a narrative but rather let the audience project their own narrative on the material on stage. Within a set score, objects are free to perform and take initiatives.
Andrea Salustri comes from Rome, where he learned contact juggling, fire manipulation, and has been working as a street artist. He graduated cum laude in Philosophy in Rome, then decided to move to Berlin to pursue an education in contemporary dance at Tanzfabrik Berlin and at HZT Berlin University. Since 2008 he has been learning piano as an autodidact. MATERIA has been selected and supported by Circusnext European Circus Label.
