A Performance by Rusconi & Sara Vidas: 9 pm

LET’S PLAY is a sound and visual journey through a time of untrammelled playfulness and experimentation. This collaboration between RUSCONI and SARA VIDAS, music and fashion, invites one to go back to a period when dreams led reality and conventions were unknown.

The suite-esque opus “Sojus Dream” by RUSCONI will be the given base of the performance. With their manifold sound-textures using double bass, drums, keyboards, percussions, guitars and voices, the three men group will play some of their own compositions and will be joined by VIDAS simultaneously improvising expressively within the piece's structure.

Miller Goodman’s game “ShapeMaker” was used as the main reference by SARA VIDAS to develop the concept and look of the performers (RUSCONI and VIDAS herself). While using her characteristic technique of “applications” and dealing with the raw garment as if it were a blank canvas. VIDAS played the game with RUSCONI and tested the unlimited design permutations offered by the different geometric patterns on each of the cube's sides. Each performer made a preselection of his own garment’s pattern out of the different possibilities of colors and shapes.

RUSCONI and SARA VIDAS first met in Zuoz during the 100 Year Jubilee of Hotel Castell. The two creatives are currently working on their next project being launched in mid September in Uster.
