ARCANE MOTIONS
What if we suddenly woke up in a world no longer governed by power but by superpowers? What would it look like if politics rewrote reality according to magical principles?
In the 2024-2025 season, Lavanderia a Vapore becomes the lair of an alchemic game, a mixing zone for people and things, an amalgam of potions for a poetic revolution that reconfigures the present by subverting the principle of non-contradiction, not resolving questions in formulas but making them resonate in a trembling echo that shakes assertive thoughts and postures. Dreamlands, underworlds and abysses, phantasmagorias flash lighting in an empty space, roles swapping and unveiling of clothes are just some of the poetics that will undercur in the residencies and creations of the public programs, allowing us to take journeys into vibrant spaces.
This page is an archive of Lavanderia a Vapore’s overarching theme of this season, a collection of contents: changing, mutant, and shapeshifting organisms, bringing to the surface what lies beneath artistic processes.
