Presentation of the project.
Dear Lucy is a performative project about the multiple lines of connection between personal and collective history, between our bodily presence and our historical past, starting from our common experience of family members who fought in Ethiopia in the colonial army during the 30s.
The performance is intended as a form of meditation and mourning, a bodily way of remembering, where a (double)-name acts as a diffractive element capable of opening the performance gesture to a multitude of other lines of entanglement, activating interference and resonance between different temporalities and different layers of meaning; between organic and inorganic; colonial medicine and paleoanthropology; between ancestors and future.
