Performance written and staged by Silvia Bertocchi for the Triennale Milano project '' Decameron: streaming stories '' during the Covid 19 emergency.
The multidisciplinary performance SORTECERTA takes place inside an empty Triennale hall due to the restrictions for the emergency and was shared live on March 10, 2020 through the channels of the same institution.
The work involves three expressive forms: dance, painting and theater. The scene is composed as follows: a white paper carpet for drawing and painting, at the opposite ends of the carpet two white fabric bandages - one on each side, held out by two black sticks with concentric weights at the base - the strips of white fabric are at the height of the artist's mouth considering her standing in front of them.
Through a path of dance and painting on the canvas, the artist travels from side to side without ever being able to leave the boundaries delimited by canvas and white bandages. On the contrary, every time she is in front of one of these, she will bring a verbal message, the messages are 5:
1- Reinvigorate your artificial garden with spray jealousy (sortecerta - on the bandage)
2- Stunning, gagging, rising from the swamp by slipping away from unwanted will (sortecerta)
3- The plot - The mockery (sortecerta)
4- I feel the chills of the most sublime of solitudes (sortecerta)
5- é Sortecerta! (Sortecerta)
At the end of each message, with a single step forward the mouth is covered by the fabric. SORTECERTA. A look at free expression in the repressive era.
