Dawn is an intimate investigation into roots, memory and the link between memories and what remains hidden. Dawn is the glow that breaks, the moment when the day dawns, when light begins to make its way suspended between the night and the new beginning.
It is in this blurred passage that the artistic research takes shape, a work that intends to explore the border between past and present, stitching together threads that connect forgotten stories, secrets and moments never really understood. A dance between the visible and the invisible in which the body becomes history, gathering between the folds of the skin the heritage of your lands: Sardinia and Albania. Through the images of the past, those captured by family videotapes, and the gestures of a body that remembers, Alba builds an intimate dialogue between image and movement, layering visual memories and bodily memories.
Giulia Cannas is a dancer, performer and author. From a very young age she has been conducting research into movement that has led her to develop an experimental and personal language. Her work is deeply rooted in the Sardinian land, while cultivating strong relationships with national and international creative environments: she has trained and worked with prestigious training and production centres such as the Biennale Danza in Venice, Centquatre Paris, Anghiari Dance Hub, Da.Re. She collaborates regularly with Fuorimargine – Centro di Produzione di Danza e Arti Performative of Sardinia and is a member of the movimentopoetico association.
