Taking up the well-known title of Charles Baudelaire’s work, Les Fleurs is a performance that focuses on poetic language and its revolutionary impact on the contemporary body, a political body, in a vision of freedom and dialogue with civil society. The musical setting is composed by Guido Affini, a score of sounds that becomes a dramaturgy that conceals and disseminates fragments of Leo Ferrè’s electronic scores and distant subliminal refrains, the soundtracks of the six characters on stage. The performance, endowed with a narrative rhythm determined by the poet’s texts and original writings, stages a melee between dance and the poetic act, as a possible rewriting of the world. Six figures on stage represent key themes: the poet, beauty, time, boredom, exile, revolt, the wound, the city, and finally poetry itself. The bare and material stage space welcomes the characters as in a single light and sound installation, where the bodies produce strong images that, like cuts in a canvas, try to leave a graphic mark on the visual retina of the beholder, blurring personal feeling to the shared wound of the community.
