In every metamorphosis and profound change of a human life, death is always by the side of life, appearing as a rite of passage or as an inward revolution. In the animal and plant kingdom, death is often part of the fecundation process and life swarms on decomposed carcasses. Especially among insects, seeds, and molds, death is a welcoming presence; death is an invitation to life. The cyclic regeneration of the seasons and of the fertility of the soil is not a linear journey, but a chaotic disruption of all the elements together.
Artist | Dewey Dell
Since 2006 Dewey Dell has created dance works that intersect different art forms, pursuing other lines of experimentation in music performance, video and visual art. Among them, “Sleep Technique – A Response to the Chauvet Pont d’ArcCave” (2017) has been nominated at the prestigious German prize Der Faust Theaterpreisfor the choreography and “Le Sacre du Printemps” (2023) won the Danza&Danza award as the best Italian dance production in 2023.
Group | Dewey Dell
Dewey Dell is an Italian dance and performing arts group active since 2006 and now composed by Teodora Castellucci, Agata Castellucci, Vito Matera, and the musician Demetrio Castellucci. The choreographic research - continuously inspired and nourished by the images of art history and the behaviors of the animal kingdom- brings forward its own path of bold confrontation with archetypes and narrative frames drawn from the ancient world, with the intention of turning the model into a cast for pouring out a current and new essence.
