BLANCHE
PERFORMANCE WORK SERIES, 2007-2016
THE PERFORMANCE GOWNS ARE MADE BY THE ARTIST AS UNIQUE PIECES
SCULPTURE - INSTALLATION
Like in a deep ceremony, each performance has its own specific props and settings.
Due to Gilda Marconi Sancisi's interest in fashion system and haute couture field, dresses are the most appropriate means by which she builds and manifests her sensibility in live performances.
Realized mainly in white or beige colors - and in different and precious fabrics - dresses are more than simple props: they are bodies and objects, stratifications and skin. Once they are worn, they become single entities: semi sculptures which acquire a new identity not directly connected to previous gestures or movements. They are always presented in installations with other items linked to the performances, like a skein of yard or a blowtorch.
GLI ABITI DELLE PERFORMANCE SONO REALIZZATI DALL'ARTISTA IN PEZZI UNICI
Come in una cerimonia profonda, ogni performance ha i oggetti specifici.
Grazie all'interesse di Gilda Marconi Sancisi per il sistema moda e il campo dell'alta moda, gli abiti sono il mezzo più appropriato con cui costruisce e manifesta la sua sensibilità nelle performance.
Realizzati principalmente nei colori bianco o beige - e in tessuti diversi e preziosi - gli abiti sono più che semplici oggetti di scena: sono corpi e oggetti, stratificazioni e pelle. Una volta indossati, diventano entità singole: semi-sculture che acquisiscono una nuova identità non direttamente collegati a gesti o movimenti precedenti.
Gli abiti sono sempre presentati in installazioni con gli altri oggetti legati alla performance di riferimento.
