"Folding Stitching Pulling”,
A live installation curated by Luca Notarfrancesco & Gabriele Rosati for côte&ciel.

On May 30th, côte&ciel hosted "Folding Stitching Pulling,” a performance and reception with Luca and Gabriele in the heart of East London to celebrate their exploration of unity and movement.

After the response to côte&ciel’s Spring/Summer ‘24 campaign, “A Celebration of Movement and Unity,” created with the creative duo Luca Notarfranseco and Gabriele Rosati, côte&ciel looks to champion this relationship through its first-ever UK event and allow people to witness a contemporary movement performance that explored the campaign’s theme of togetherness and separation in physical form.

The resulting ensemble was a 45-minute contemporary piece choreographed by Luca and Gabriele, executed by performers Francesco Ayrton Lacatena and Sem Osian in which the two started together and would slowly part in their own solo performances. In addition, a live print installation, which would slowly deteriorate and fall down throughout the night, would reveal more visuals behind it.

Jacopo Beolchi produced an hour-long custom soundscape specially for the event, creating a rhythmic and atmospheric moment for both the performers and watchers.
