ŻfinMalta proudly presents ŻfinMade – Corporeality, this is a biennial programme that invites six Maltese choreographers to create a series of solos and duets with the ŻfinMalta company dancers. This year the theme is Corporeality, focusing on the existence of a physical body. These six world premieres will each respond to the idea of ‘Our bodies in a digital world’.
ŻfinMade will take place at the Spazju Kreattiv Theatre in Valletta betweenDecember 5 and 8, presenting three works per night, performed over four nights. Experience these new choreographic works by six Maltese choreographers: Florinda Camilleri, Valentina Cauchi, Tara Dalli, Pamela Kerr, Sandra Mifsud, and Sarah Vella. The following works will be presented:
Wanderlust 2 – choreography by Florinda Camilleri
The wanderMust research series is Florinda’s ongoing attempt to discover new, more responsive and ‘response-able’ ways of engaging with environments based on solidarity, care, and compassion.
Extension – choreography by Sarah Vella
In Extension, Sarah Vella delves into the nuances of emotion, allowing the dancers to inhabit a space where their true selves emerge. Extension strives to connect the essence of what it means to be human in today’s modern world.
Original sound composition: Benji Cachia
AI I AM – choreography by Valentina Cauchi
Valentina explores the human condition in a rapidly changing, sometimes nonsensical world, through reflective expression. The work ultimately questions how technology reshapes our understanding of embodiment in a digital age.
Illusion – choreography by Sandra Mifsud
From the moment of conception, humanity embarks on an endless quest for happiness and connection. As we grow, this journey unfolds as a bittersweet dance of fleeting satisfaction and persistent longing.
I am linked, there I am choreography by Pamela Kerr
I am linked, therefore I am delves into the complexities of living in the duality created by social media. We seem to live in a constant state of tension between the digital persona and the authentic self. Can we ever truly escape the duality of our online and offline lives, or are we forever caught in a dance between the two?
Fiat Ferrari – choreography by Tara Dalli
Fight for the spotlight? Why so fast? Do I know you? Are we there yet? Will something happen? Is there a goal? If you say so. Have you been waiting? Where are we going? You could say so. Like ok? Did you find it? Are we happy? Does it ever end? What do you mean?
The artistic team is made up of Victor Jacono as dramaturge, Holly Knowles as costume Designer and Dali Aguerbi as light designer. For more information kindly visit kreattivita.org.
