Suspended between concert form and installation performance, Morceau de bleu is a work in progress that arises from the collaboration of sound artists Barbara De Dominicis, Alessandro Ciccarelli, and Cristian Maddalena, in an open, ever-changing dialogue freely inspired by Maggie Nelsonโ€™s poetic horizon.

Bluets serves as the premise for a profound sonic investigation, anchored in a fragmented and multifaceted poetic language. It offers a perceptual experience that, like an ideal score, leads the audience to explore a liminal dimension of the self, shifting between active acoustic reception and surrender, between dreaming and waking.

Video recorded on January 26, 2025, at Francesco Zielloโ€™s Stanze Sonore at Recherche.
Set design and lighting by Vittoria Faro, video footage by Francesco Ziello, audio and video editing by Alessandro Ciccarelli,
