Synopsis: 

Skin, flesh, sound and movement. Different elements that interact displacing the female/male binary ordering and the hierarchical relations that emerge from it. 

In Carni di prima qualità the body is (dis)ordered differently: there is no gender, only crashes, friction, skin sliding at varying speed and intensity that generates movement and produces sound through contact. 

Carni di prima qualità speaks about those moments and situations desired and undesired that happen to all in life. 

Awards 

Carni di prima qualità was awarded a second prize at the XXII Coreographic Contest of Madrid in 2009, winning a residence in the Centre of Creation La Caldera (Barcelona). It was awarded the first prize by the jury CHOREOGRAM (group of European choreographers attending the Certamen). The piece also won a Residency of  Creation at La Fundicion (Bilbao) in October 2010.
