Once More is a performance that develops in the relationship between two subjects, in a continuous confrontation without brakes. A concert display where body, sound and word are assumed as unpredictable elements of the composition. On the same level light, dark and image are stratified as a rhythmic score in a circular vortex in which even what the body produces is subtracted, in favor of a single performative movement. The inscrutable eye of the camera, in its mechanical subjectivity, records the contours of what happens, redefining its perception. Once More is chaos, ecstasy and freedom.
Kinkaleri - Jacopo Benassi ONCE MORE
"I'm not really interested in gas pumps or anything related to gas pumps. It's just an excuse like any other to see." - Joel Meyerowitz
Kinkaleri was created in Florence in 1995. Kinkaleri operates between experimentation, choreographic and movement research, performances, installations, installations, sound materials, seeking a language not based on a style but directly on the evidence of an object.

Among the latest works we mention the All! project, a multi-year choreographic research project based on the invention of a body language directly linked to the written word through the invention of a code that unites letter with gesture.
Since January 2001, the operational headquarters have moved to SpazioK, one of the sheds of the former Campolmi industrial area, where they combine the production activity with that of event promoters and artistic residencies under the name of is it my world?. The group is currently formed by Massimo Conti, Marco Mazzoni, Gina Monaco.
