" In 2006, after the suicide of Claudio Borghi, in my opinion the grandfather
of street art in Italy, came to me the need of a Group, that I founded in 2007
and which still doesn’t have a name but which could be very well be called…
I search in particular the unique and deep existence of everyone, in a shared space.
The first performance was given in the kingdom in ruins of Vijayanagar, near Hampi, India.
I called it: " Prières " - A tribute to Claudio Borghi, swordswallower .
It lasted 6 weeks and 4 nights.
A fabulous pilgrimage of dance and juggling. Walking like someone searching for water,
in some unknown place, where people, Indians, silentely open their eyes, where children jump
ecstatic through our balls. In a village one morning, and then…suddenly vanished, 4 days later
here we are again, and then… yet disappeared.
Sometimes a rock, sometimes a fisherman, a child, a photographer, 1000 frogs, a bus,
just the shadow, another sun.
Each morning begins in the dark of the night.
Each morning here, a new dance comes along.
No time for why, just incredible moments where the bodies listen,
watching with their countless eyes.
The bodies are shaking just like a new beginning. New dancing spring ! "
Jean Daniel Fricker
At this occasion I invited the photographer Adam Łach Lunaris, which I met in London, who came the last week of performance where we started our collaboration on his 'luna-graphy'.
