Multi-sensorial dialogue
"Joy is one’s passage from a lesser to a greater perfection."
— Baruch Spinoza (Ethics)
​
The search for joy is inevitable for the human race. Consciously or subconsciously, one is always persuading joy over pain, balance over crisis, peace over desperation. Now, more than ever, with the uncertainties and difficulties that we are experiencing, we need to remind ourselves what are the simple things that can give us joy.
​
ON JOY explores this vast world of feelings, emotions and sensations through a multi-sensorial multidisciplinary dialogue that can help us reconnect - through art - with ourselves and the world that surrounds us, generating an expression that is not only meant to be seen, but to be felt.
The Event
The one-night artistic event will be a dynamic, fruitful occasion to exchange ideas, via performing live experimenting with new performance formats.
Â
The Venue
ON JOY will combine different artistic performances, each held in a different ‘room’ inside a created virtual space of Carrozzerie | n.o.t. that you can enjoy here in our website on January 21, 2021
Â
The Artists
Through an open call, artists were invited to respond to the concept of joy and five projects were selected by our curatorial team, bringing joy to the audience.
The visual artist Daniele Sciacca, the musicians of the Electro Organic Orchestra, the videomaker Lou Xin, the singer Roberta Staffieri and the performer Riccardo Festa, who was commissioned to create his project in collaboration with our curatorial team.
