Francesco Cavaliere: Soffio che scotta

Soffio che Scotta is a small opening onto an undefined number of stories, legends and beliefs developed alongside the saga Gancio Cielo. Started as a form of writing for a sound story and published as two vinyls by Hundebiss Records – the first released in 2015 and the second presented on the occasion of his show in Milan – Gancio Cielo assembles a fantastic universe which exists in the dimension of sound, where the primary source is voice, woven with an archive of home-made sounds with a science-fiction feeling.
Francesco Cavaliere guides his visitor in spaces populated by strange creatures inhabiting a non-defined universe: hybrids of minerals, animals, plants, planets, trails, cosmic objects, physics and perceptual phenomena are presented in a dense unfolding of events, a saga of mythical dynasties and extravagant singularities.
After its first installation in Bologna on the occasion of Live Arts Week 2015, Soffio che Scotta represents the last and extended evolution of a journey in which the materials of Gancio Cielo fully manifest themselves visually, thanks to a series of objects, figures and forms animated by beams of light and electric motors.
