Performance BOLDLY AGING
Press Release:
BOLDLY AGING is a choreographic and sculptural performance that celebrates the expressive power of mature bodies. Performed by artists aged 45 to 70, it explores aging not as decline, but as a force of creativity, endurance, and reinvention.
Within a space shaped by sculptural modules inspired by gym equipment, gestures—precise, restrained, sometimes abrupt—give rise to a slow, dense, deeply embodied dance.
Time becomes substance, fragility turns into strength, and every movement carries the memory of a life lived.
The project challenges dominant aesthetic norms by centering bodies that are often rendered invisible, yet full of depth and vitality.
BOLDLY AGING is both a poetic and political statement—a celebration of soft intensity, unapologetic presence, and unconventional beauty.
