DOVE HANNO TREMATO LE PLACCHE BY VALERIE TAMEU

Dove hanno tremato le placche presents itself as a blurred premonition that arises from the relationship between the body and the archive. The fragments of a imperfect archive float on the surface of memory; images which indulge the body and its contemplating gaze. The relationship between me and what remains is revealed in the dance; it is a veiled ritual that confronts me with the intimacy of exchange and the need to see myself elsewhere, within a different time and space. What is acted out is the testimony of an encounter, a succession of attempts to understand, process, and reshuffle the traces of the past.
Dove hanno tremato le placche is also a childhood game in which we tune into cyclical time, where memory and prediction mingle as imagination; an ironic limbo inhabited by outlandish presences, veteran objects of history, actions, and words in search of wonder.
