Artemista Culture Centre is looking for four performers (two from dance theatre preferably with music skills and two from music theatre with the skills to independently curate their choreographies) and one expert in multimedia interactivity techniques (such as video, music, use of sensors, midi language) for a residency in Italy, from 10 November to 9 December 2024.
The theme will be ‘Speaking rituals. To the roots of identity.’ The mentor, Mauro Buttafava, will lead a training for the artists starting from his own experience as an author of music for the stage and as a music theatre director.
In the final performance the artists will stage the ritual, interacting with ‘technology’, the fifth character on stage: they will produce music with parts of their bodies, dance and act together with videos, sounds, lights emerging from the scene in an interplay game with the artists. The goal is to create four solos and a collective scene for one live performance that will also be recorded.
Participating artists must be legally residing in one of the 40 Creative Europe countries (apart from Italy). Artemista provides accommodation, mentoring, equipment, etc. There is also a mobility grant that includes travel allowance (350–700 EUR) and daily allowance for the participating artists (25 EUR per day).
