Myein is a project that traverses different narrative levels and possible readings on the mediatic use of images, approached through Gloria Dorliguzzo’s physical and scenic expressions and Riccardo Santalucia’s audiovisual scores.
The artists’ research stems from localised forms of knowledge, and in its arrival in Bruges, is articulated in a dialogue with the paintings of the Flemish Primitives. In this way, the use of archives and heritage becomes a way of rethinking our present, and confronting the past and new mythologies.
In a society, where overproduction saturates one’s personal capacity to pay attention, what possibilities do we have to activate listening practices and meditative gazes? As all around we sample and archive reality through technological means, detaching physical involvement in the experience of our history and surroundings, what use can we make of these data collections?
Through different forms of acceleration and deceleration, conceived as a score of images, sounds and gestures, the audience is accompanied in a journey where the idea of becoming part of a fluid body arises, abandoning figurativeness and fixed symbologies.
