Sound: Grazia Cantoni – Francesco Ferri. The work Il monolite 1928-2012 is not merely the representation of the author’s procession from a religious space - the quarry - to the social space - the city; the metaphor of the quarry is the ideal, oniric process of the self from one dimension to another. It’s a sort of dream-like experience where her ballerina with no role given, nor name or identity creates, quarries and moves a gauze monolith form a quarry along the road through a tunnel and it never ends, it loops and starts again. It is searching for another dimension, an unique form of the self, her true identity.
