The duo Panzetti/Ticconi continues to investigate the aesthetic transformations that power has taken on and undergone throughout history, oscillating between the definition of ideals of beauty and acts and representations of cruelty. The metamorphosis between beauty and cruelty, understood as antithetical yet fraternal imaginaries, will be the main focus of this residency period, in which the colour red will remain the only constant element of a metamorphic device involving bodies and objects. The research moves towards the possibility of a scenic writing in which images open up a perceptive and emotional space, where attraction and disturbance coexist.

Ginevra Panzetti and Enrico Ticconi live between Berlin and Turin and have been working together as an artistic duo since 2008. Their research develops across the fields of dance, performance and visual arts. Through an exploration of themes connected to the historical relationship between communication, violence and power, they draw from ancient imaginaries, constructing figures and hybrid images between history and contemporaneity. Their work gained international recognition with Harleking (2018) and continues through projects that investigate the symbol and its political dimension. Since 2020, they have expanded their practice by collaborating with international companies, including Dance On Ensemble, Studio Contemporary Dance Company, T.H.E Dance Company, Dance Theatre Heidelberg and Abbondanza/Bertoni. Their work has been presented at major international festivals and choreographic centres, with tours across Europe, Asia, the Middle East and South America.
