Elisa

ELISA is a journey following the traces of a virtual microorganism—an imagined organism moving across landscapes, memories, and living systems. Like a road movie, the performance intertwines sounds, images, and fragments collected along the way, transforming a process of exploration into an immersive audiovisual experience. The audience is guided through a sensory itinerary where real elements and speculative dimensions overlap, creating a narrative that unfolds between scientific observation, imagination, and perception.

The project originates from the encounter of three artists who reconnect after a long time and decide to embark on a journey together. This movement—both physical and symbolic—becomes the starting point for a shared creative process. Along the route, the artists gather sonic materials, visual suggestions, environmental recordings, and traces of their direct experience of the places they cross. These elements, layered and reworked, converge in the construction of the performance, shaping a narrative composed of memory, observation, and transformation.

During the performance, the landscapes encountered throughout the journey are reinterpreted through an evolving audiovisual composition. Sonic textures, electronic rhythms, and generative images interact to create an immersive environment where the audience is invited to navigate through listening and vision. The figure of the virtual microorganism becomes a metaphor for the invisible circulation that connects territories, ecosystems, and human relationships.

More than a simple audiovisual experience, ELISA presents itself as a passage—an act of crossing and a shared journey that invites reflection on our relationship with the environment and the fragility of the ecosystems that surround us. Through the combination of sound, image, and narrative, the performance suggests new perspectives on how we perceive the natural world and the invisible networks that sustain it. In this sense, ELISA also becomes a poetic and political gesture, proposing a moment of attention and listening to what often remains imperceptible yet fundamental to the balance of our planet.
