Mattia Cason: POSKUSI MOZAIKA #ponovitev

Navidezno različne stvari, kot so krščanstvo, boginja Izida, Ptuj v Sloveniji, judovstvo, Pasolini, Aleksandrija v Egiptu, lik kurenta, gnosticizem in migracije, se stkejo in prepletejo v mestecu Oglej v Italiji, nekoč enem od rimskih epicentrov, ki se ponaša z največjim mozaikom zahodnorimskega zgodnjega krščanstva s 760 kvadratnimi metri, v goreči viziji eruditskega plesalca o Afroazijski združeni Evropi.

Evropi z drugostjo v svojem jedru, evropske-ne-evropske Evrope, vselej nekje vmes, v prečnicah, vselej že povezane, medsebojno povezane in odvisne, soodvisne, kot mozaik, združene skozi delčke pomena in plasti časa, poskuse enotnosti.

𝐏𝐨𝐬𝐤𝐮𝐬𝐢 𝐦𝐨𝐳𝐚𝐢𝐤𝐚: 𝐊𝐨𝐫𝐚𝐤𝐢 𝐤 𝐜̌𝐮𝐭𝐧𝐢 𝐚𝐫𝐡𝐞𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐢𝐣𝐢 (2025) so “ples pripovedi”, tesno utelešenje in globoko branje mozaika kot tihega pričevanja, a tudi političnega manifesta Afroazijske združene Evrope, ki se zgodovinsko, kolektivno izogiba ali izmika mejam, narodom, državam ali kulturam. Mattia Cason, ki združuje domišljijo, performativnost, spomin in kolektivnost, morda pleše v različnih uprizoritvah, a vselej pleše eno predstavo, v imenu nezaslišane revolucionarne sile preteklosti.

Seemingly disparate things, such as Christianity, the goddess Isis, Ptuj in Slovenia, Judaism, Pasolini, Alexandria in Egypt, the figure of the kurent, Gnosticism, and migrations, converge and coallesce in the small town of Aquileia in Italy, once, one of Roman epicentres, boasting the largest mosaic floor of the Roman West / Early Christianity with 760 sqm, in an erudite dancer’s burning vision of an Afro-Asiatic United Europe.

A Europe with otherness at its core, a European-non-European Europe, always somewhere in-between, in transversals, always already interconnected, interrelated, interdependent, like a mosaic, united through fragments of meaning and layers of time, attempts of unity.

𝐀𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐚 𝐌𝐨𝐬𝐚𝐢𝐜: 𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐩𝐬 𝐓𝐨𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬 𝐚 𝐒𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐞𝐨𝐥𝐨𝐠𝐲 (2025) is a “dance of narration”, a close embodiment and a deep reading of a mosaic as a silent testament but also a political manifesto of an Afro-Asiatic United Europe, historically, collectively escaping or eschewing borders, nations, states, or cultures. Bridging imagination, performativity, memory and collectivity, Mattia Cason might be dancing in disparate performances but he is always dancing one piece, in the name of the outrageous revolutionary force of the past.
