VARIATIONS ON THE ROOFS
Stromboli, 21st – 25th June 2023
Now in its fifth edition, Marosi Festival returns to the streets and roofs of the island with a new word to be explored: Variation. Variation as that being imposed by the exposure to the outside, to atmospheric agents and to the territory. Variation as a form and a mechanism in music and dance composition process. Variation as a creative principle capable of making a pièce always alive and open.
Variation to be able to observe the plurality that resides in a single object.
Variation as a multiplier of stories and encounters. Variation as the element that enable to keep exploring the oral tales and memory of the island, linked to the body and dance through artistic creation. From 21 to 25 June, 21 local and international artists from dance, performance, visual and sound arts and curatorial practices will land here for a total of 13 works presented. All shows are free to access.

Marosi challenge
The challenge that the project wants to launch is to give centrality to insular looks and in time to stimulate collaborations with independent and institutional projects that believe in the encounter between art, research and territory, to create networks of exchange and comparison between professionals in the performing arts and in research. Doing this from a small island of Fire in the middle of the Mediterranean to land new islands and new lands is our purpose.
The Island is not only a physical reality, it is also a symbolic dimension. The island is a marginal and isolated micro-continent only if conceived in connection with the mainland.
Islands are those places where you always train your gaze beyond the horizon.
Origins of the project
Marosi means “stormy sea wave”. For us great wave of potential transformation. Marosi Stromboli is a project entirely curated by artists that aims to promote research in the body arts and in contemporary performing languages on Stromboli island and to create a synergistic relationship it.

The space and the island
Our workspace will be the Parco Parco, an outdoor area surrounded by a large garden of ears, poppies and daisies with dry stone walls, surrounded by vegetable gardens where local products – some of which are otherwise forgotten products – are grown and transformed.
