L'avvenire

Graduated in Philosophy, Silvia Rampelli centers her research on the nature of the act and on the centrality of perception within both stage practice and transformative experiential processes. In 2002 she founded Habillé d’eau, an independent performative research project grounded in a stable core of collaborators and in an ongoing dialogue with artists who have contributed to its evolution over time. The current group includes Alessandra Cristiani, Eleonora Chiocchini, Valerio Sirna, Stefania Tansini, and Gianni Staropoli (lighting). With Habillé d’eau she has been produced, among others, by the Venice Biennale – International Theater Festival and invited to major festivals. Active in theoretical and educational fields alongside her artistic research, she leads seminars and public talks in theaters, festivals, and institutions, teaches in universities and higher education programs, and develops projects, interventions, and practices within contexts of social fragility. Her work has received numerous publications and critical recognitions, including the Ubu Award 2018 for Best Dance Performance.
