Convivio
Site-specific performance, 2023
Created for Festa Danzante Ticino 2023
at the Museum of Art of Mendrisio in dialogue with Cesare Lucchini's exhibition 'La Terra Trema'
​
While dialoguing with Cesare Lucchini's canvases exposed in the Museum of Art of Mendrisio, in Convivio the three interpreters guide the audience through an immersive experience. Inevitably, the latter becomes both inhabitant of the space and co-creator.
Multiple possibilities of perceptions and infinite perspectives open up, blending in a continuous movement.

Creative Exchange
a series of conversations
Video series, 2023
Creative Exchange - a series of conversations was born from a personal desire to uncover different creative processes and shine a light on the expertise of artists, healers, and creators that I met along the way.
Through our conversations, I aim to make their knowledge and precious tools accessible in multiple languages.

All eyes. All lies. Allies
Dance film, 2020
Concept and movement direction: Sophie Claire Annen
Interpretation: Sophie Claire Annen, Giorgia D'Amico, Alice D'Angelo, Giorgia Lolli
Editing: Sophie Claire Annen, Valentino Szemere
​
The dance film All eyes. All lies. Allies revolves around the idea of women taking ownership of their female identity and corporality, through the assertion of their own self-confidence.
Instead of focusing on the outside perception that an external eye might have about their female identities and bodies, the dancers shift their attention inwards.
Through a process of self-discovery and affirmation of their worth, they intentionally decide how to present themselves, what to show and, especially, which sensation to harness within themselves.

"As within, so without."
