SPACE AND POWER has been developed in the frame of the Metamorphoses Project by 3 residency periods of choreographic research that have been conducted inside the 3 co-producers centers (La Briqueterie, Les Brigittines, Zamek) from December 2013 to April 2014.  During these periods the group analyzed through its specific methodology called “Add Up” (that is based on the adhesion of the bodies to the architectures) the identity of these places that now host 3 cultural centers but in the past they were 3 centers of power: a factory (La Briqueterie), a chapel (Les Brigittines), an imperial castle (CK Zamek). The identities of these 3 venues were the starting point of the plot of the show that involves 3 dancers and live interacting video played by a visual artist. SYNOPSYS: SPACE AND POWER treat the issue of power in the double meaning of coercion and possibility: architecture as a symbol of power and the human body as an expressive possibility.  The power of the architecture changes the body, pushing it to a metamorphosis, imposing a behavior, influencing the actions, attitudes and thoughts. The human being, in turn, continually reinvents its surroundings and transforms the constraints into potential elements of creativity. The bodies, conditioned and shaped by the architectures, express the inner movement of the life of the buildings and, through the abstraction of dance, create new possibility of life for those places.  Add Up - Space and Power is an important step of Add Up, the choreographic research and creation project of Senza Confini Di Pelle about the relationship between dance and architecture, urbanization and sociality.
