In an atmosphere charged with suggestion and deep reflection, the museum housing the works of David Tremlett becomes the stage for a unique performance inspired by Virginia Woolf's feminist manifesto ‘A Room of One's Own’.

Dancers, with elegant and powerful movements, explore the surrounding space in search of their own ‘room of one's own’, valorising solitude as a place of freedom and creativity. Their actions are guided only by female voices that make up the sound carpet of the performance and transport the audience on a sensorial journey, animating their bodies against the backdrop of Tremlett's fields, which become a symbol of echo and resonance, in search of an authentic and liberated female voice.

The voices lead the audience to a world parallel to the ‘here and now’: thanks to the use of headphones, in fact, all the actors on stage, both the audience and the dancers, are isolated in the collective, remaining connected by a series of sensations that they know they are experiencing at the same time. It is, in other words, an ‘estrangement’ conducted step by step by the artists who invite the audience to follow them towards a goal of awareness, which takes shape only thanks to being together in front of the works, lulled by the vision of harmonic movement.
