"The ambition of soaring that has been accompanying the history of human thinking since forever, from the Myth of Icarus to Leonardo's researches, to today, puts life and death into relation.In this performance, Andrea Bianconi gives voice to the subconscious desire of embracing the universe e setting our spirit free, and at the same time, brings our deepest fears into focus. It forces us to look ourselves in the mirror, with our inabilities and limits, but at the same time pushes us to not set back on our illusions and to reconsider the effort of trying to fly as something vital in itself."
