Campo dell’eco is a physical performance workshop created by four artists: Wanling Mo, Alice Bertolasi, Veronica Parato, and Ambra Iori. Centered on the body as the primary medium, it constructs personal perceptual fields through sound, movement, language, and space.

The workshop takes place over three days, with progressively deeper content designed to enhance body awareness and proprioception. Its specific components are:

1. Exploration of perception and presence: understanding and connecting with the self

2. Movement practice: fluid spaces and the body

3. Campo dell’eco: constructing perceptual realms

Wanling Mo focuses on the body, returning to its core to activate perceptual capacities. Through movement, participants recognize proprioception and explore how the self constructs perceptual fields and how these fields manifest physically. Alice Bertolasi guides exploration through sound, fostering bodily resonance and spatial reverberation in the convergence of individual and collective voices. Veronica Parato leads participants in discovering the expressive power of the body’s “language,” establishing intangible communication and connection through physical gestures and nonverbal means. Ambra Iori directs the group into a state of readiness through rhythmic breathing, enabling perception of bodily reception and feedback through body–space and body–body contact, transmitting both conscious and unconscious messages.

The performance is based on three days of training guided by bodily perception. Its content focuses on bodily flow and immediate responses, seeking reactions through sound, language, and environmental feedback.
