ABOUT
MATTEO CARVONE
Credo in un'arte non elitaria,
in un artista che sappia collegare la mente e la pancia attraverso il cuore.
Credo nell'artigianalità del lavoro
e credo fermamente nella sacralità del linguaggio del corpo".
Matteo Carvone

CREATIONS
Dance - Theatre - Installation
The architectural space, in which the choreographic work takes place is never intended and designed as a decorative element, but rather as one of the foundations on which Carvone builds his work.
Space is sometimes translated into Video and Video installations which Carvone create himself.
