Divano occidentale is a choreographic session deriving from the project sostanzasonora (Sound matter), from which it borrows the theme of the impossibility of any speech.. Its format is configured like an open structure, free to adopt new performers and intruders from the place were it stages.
Diwan is an Arab word meaning a gathering, but also a song book, a collection of incidentale images and equally arbitrary captions.
The bodies remain into the plot only as reverberating substance and continual reference to a misterious elsewhere.
The dances appear in the chronological vacuum and the suspended threads of the unrecognisable.
