REVOLVER

Revolutions: proclaimed promises meet resistances made of flesh, bones, history and objects.
REVOLVER presents a woman and a barricade in a solo that draws parallels between personal attempts for change and the universal process of social transformation. Mixing dance, film, visual arts and music, with references to the dark humour and sadness of the black & white films from the silent movies era.
This new piece REVOLVER draws from a short work produced by Dublin Dance Festival for the commemoration of the Proclamation of Independence
Presented by Iseli-Chiodi dance company, in collaboration with Martin Mele (visual art) and Oscar Mascareñas (music composition).
“Delightful… Visually arresting… Wonderfully moving in its struggle and simplicity.” Irish Examiner
