LORENZO DE SIMONE | Permutazioni 2019/2020

Lorenzo De Simone has been selected for a research residency inside the framework of Permutazioni 2019/2020, with the project Variazione#2: Eulogy to Kindness. The examination board – composed by Cristiana Candellero, Doriana Crema, Enrico Pastore, Federica Tardito, Stefano Mazzotta and Valentina Tibaldi – has been helped, in selecting, by the winners of the previous edition: Amina Amici, Elisa D’Amico, Francesco Dalmasso.
This project, designed for a single dancer on stage, sinks into the need of dealing with the question of kindness. It has become a forbidden pleasure. In our imagination as human beings, kindness is not a natural instinct: we all are crazy, bad, dangerous and profoundly competitive. People are driven by selfishness: impulses towards others are only forms of mere self-preservation. But even though the pleasure of kindness is risky, it is one of the most fulfilling things we’ve got. Today the term “kindness” embraces a range of feelings describable in different words: solidarity, generosity, altruism, benevolence, humanity, compassion, piety, empathy (Phillips A. & Taylor B., 2009).
