Amina Amici, a dancer and choreographer, is a leading figure in contemporary choreography. She trained in Perugia, across Europe and in New York, and has a track record of long-standing collaborations with nationally and internationally renowned companies such as Balletto Civile, Sosta Palmizi and, for Carolyn Carlson, at the CCN in Roubaix. Her choreographic practice stems from an organic and anatomical exploration of the body, synthesising profound practices such as the Klein Technique, the Nikolais method and Shiatsu into a personal and rigorous language. In her works, such as the four solos dedicated to Maria o dell’appartenenza, the duet per tre corpi forse, prologo, the solo  Resti Lontani and the quartet Vuoti d’aria, Amici explores the possibility of clean, incisive movement that combines technical rigour with theatricality, constantly drawing inspiration from classical and modern painting and sculpture, in a continuous dialogue between gesture, iconography and space.
