production Associazione L’Altra

A broad inquiry around and toward pleasure. A tendency, an inclination to search for a condition of openness, connection, rest, bliss and enchantment that can foster Pleasure toward self and others and question the situatedness of our bodies and their positioning in the world. In Placebo Dances we seek postures that are shaken by desire, that gently disrupt bodies and make them waver, to find an erotic closeness of our being in the world. Pleasure is here salvation in times of catastrophe.

The research of Flavia Zaganelli, dance artist and performer, is cross-disciplinary and multidisciplinary. Her performance works investigate the mechanism of relationship in its changing facets. In 2021 she debuts in Danza Urbana with The Game We Play and creates INVISIBILIA thanks to the award of the Bando Abitante of Compagnia Virgilio Sieni. In 2023 she debuts with electrica /ecosi’stɛma/ at Spazio Kor. She is an artist selected for the Boarding Pass Plus Dance 2023 call for proposals for her new research Placebo Dances, hosted at Moving in November Festival (Helsinki) and Graner (Barcelona) in collaboration with Santarcangelo Festival.
