Forrest is an itinerant performance that comes to life in the public space, moving through streets, squares, and ‘non-places.’ It is a sudden passage that transforms the everyday into a stage, opening up possibilities for connection between the performer, the environment, and the audience—both those who choose to follow and those who witness it by chance.
Rafael Candela inhabits the urban architecture with a body in a state of continuous alertness and transformation, allowing himself to be shaped by noises, obstacles, glances, and presences. The action becomes play, poetry, dissonance: a micrology of movement capable of suspending the utilitarian function of space and returning it to a sensitive, fragile, and collective dimension.
On Saturday, October 18, the performance enters into a profound dialogue with the installation Arena Stadera, created by Fantastudio (Carolina Amoretti) and Sara Ricciardi.
In this site-specific reprise, one of the installation’s banners becomes an integral part of the choreography. Forrest invites the audience to an immersive experience that rewrites and gives new meaning to the neighborhood’s space through movement and presence.
