MINE is the result of an artistic encounter between Francesco Saverio Cavaliere, Siro Guglielmi, Fabio Novembrini, Roberta Rac-is and Silvia Sisto. MINE is an experiment of collective, horizontal creation and choreographic writing by ten hands that aims to carry on a research work focused on the sharing of practices, experi-mentations and languages.
In 2020 they debut with the choreographic project Corpi Elettrici, in collaboration with the Gender Bender Festival and the Electronic Music School of the G.B. Martini Conservatory in Bologna. The work was initially conceived as a special project by Gender Bender and the G.B. Martini Conservatory in Bologna, developed during the lockdown to make the 5 dancemakers of the Collective work together with 20 students from the Electronic Music and Applied Music courses. From these meetings, which took the form of vide-oconference sessions, 20 short video works were produced. From these 20 videos the MINE Collective subsequently developed a creation for the stage.
In 2021 they are choreographers for the project, Swans never die (Danzare la memoria 2020-2022) a project of Lavanderia a Vapore – Centro di Residenza per la Danza (Piemonte dal Vivo – Circuito Multidisciplinare dello Spettacolo, Coorpi, Didee Arti e Comunicazioni, Mosaico Danza, Zerogrammi); Operaestate Festival Veneto and Centro per la Scena Contempo-ranea CSC Bassano del Grappa; Triennale Milano Teatro; Fonda-zione Teatro Grande di Brescia; Festival Bolzano Danza – Fonda-zione Haydn; Gender Bender Festival; Memory in Motion.
