Edizioni Brigantino nasce nel 2018 a Milano dall'incontro tra Valentina Lucchetti e Canedicoda. La loro pratica artistica intreccia un approccio intuitivo alle logiche di costruzione e al saper far da sé. Assieme sperimentano modalità di organizzazione degli spazi e progettualità curatoriali con un approccio transdisciplinare, intrecciando linguaggi scultorei e sonori, pratiche di ricerca e attivazioni collettive. Dal 2022 curano Clacson, una rassegna sonora e performativa sull'isola di Salina. Nel loro studio a Milano ospitano Pomeridiana, una piattaforma domestica per generare momenti di ascolto, di suono, di confronto, di assaggi e di legami.

Canale MILVA | Cover
performance | 7.00-7.20 PM

Canale MILVA is launching a new line of research dedicated to fairy tales and their connection to Italian-language culture, exploring the potential development of this genre within contemporary art. The project reinterprets traditional folk tales from a feminist perspective, drawing on various methodological references, including the work of Angela Carter.
Through the concept of the "cover", borrowed from music, the fairy tale becomes living material —a text to be traversed, reinterpreted, and transformed while preserving its sense of wonder, magic, and collective transmission.

Canale MILVA was launched in 2020 by Giada Olivotto and Camilla Paolino as a virtual radio space dedicated to sound exhibitions. Conceived during the hiatus of in-person artistic activities, the project explores sound as an exhibition medium and listening as an aesthetic and political experience. Through radio features inspired by figures and songs from Italian musical culture, Canale MILVA commissions new works from artists across disciplines. The goal is to create a space for collective experimentation at the intersection of contemporary art, voice, cultural memory, and feminist practices. Currently, Canale MILVA collaborates with numerous independent venues and radio stations in Switzerland and Italy.

Martina Rota | Dear Lola & Prisci
performance | 7.25-8.10 PM

Dear Lola & Prisci is a constantly evolving vocal and textual performance constructed from diary fragments, songs, notes, conversations, and materials drawn from personal and collective life. Through song, speech, and repetition, the text is reformulated and recomposed according to a cumulative, nonlinear logic. The performance unfolds as an unstable archive of memories, emotional states, and languages, with each iteration incorporating traces of previous ones, adding variations and shifts in meaning. The visual aspect participates in this process as well: for each performance, the artist presents a different hairstyle, emphasizing the process-oriented nature of the piece, which is never definitive. Dear Lola & Prisci explores the possibility of constructing a fragmentary, continuously rewritten self-portrait in which intimacy, memory, and language overlap without settling into a stable form.

Martina Rota is an artist active in the visual and performing arts. She is the co-founder and curator of "EXPANDING MOVEMENT", a workshop blending movement and art, as well as "MASSIMO", an independent contemporary art space. Rota’s artistic practice is characterized by a strong interdisciplinary approach that explores the urges, desires, and traumas of the body in collective and personal dimensions. After graduating from the Brera Academy of Fine Arts, she studied dance in Italy and across Europe. She participated in the Venice Biennale and the SNDO School in Amsterdam.

Rebecca Solari | Fulminante gigantessa
performance | 8.15-8.50 PM

Fulminante gigantessa is a sound performance in which Rebecca Solari’s alter ego —lightning— clashes with a limiting system of transformations. Through screams, language, and movement, the piece creates a polyphonic and unstable space that challenges the norms shaping our identities. It does so by conjuring narratives about a turtle in boiling vegetable soup, chewing gum spat into compost, and a bolt of lightning striking a dense swamp.

Rebecca Solari is a Swiss cross-disciplinary artist. She holds a master's degree from the Dirty Art Department at the Sandberg Instituut in Amsterdam. She is part of the electro-punk duo Crème Solaire (CH) and the music/performance project fulmine (NL). In 2025, she received the Kiefer Hablitzel Prize at the Swiss Art Awards for Solo Brodo (Primordio e Parsimonia) [Only Broth (Primordium and Parsimony)] and was nominated for the Mobilière Art Prize and the Swiss Performance Award. Her work spans performance, music, and visual art, and has been presented at numerous institutions, festivals, and exhibition spaces across Switzerland and Europe.

Francesca Sproccati | Venir meno (versione ridotta)
performance sonora | 8.55-9.35 PM

Venir meno, the artist explains, «is a dreamlike encounter between two mythological figures. One comes from my personal history: my great-grandfather Battista, a partisan. In my eyes, he was a hero who liberated Italy from fascism by embodying the forces of struggle and resistance against injustice. The other figure comes from Greek mythology: Hypnos, the god of sleep. Today, he could free us from work, competition, and exhaustion. What kind of forces do these two figures embody? What does it mean for me, for us, today, here, to resist?».
This sound performance features live electronic music, textual interpolations, and distorted songs. Francesca Sproccati shares the stage with Léo Collin.

Francesca Sproccati is an artist who is active in the performing arts field. She intertwines installation, performance, and sound research to create contemplative environments where sound, matter, and listening are tools for relating body and space. Since 2017, she has been developing a personal research project exploring fragility, presence, and the collective dimension through immersive and performative works. Examples include EXP: je voudrais commencer par sauter (EXP: I Would Like to Begin by Jumping), Out of Me, Inside You, and Il tempo di rivoluzione è un giro attorno al sole (The Time of Revolution is One Orbit around the Sun). In 2022, she was nominated for the Swiss Performance Art Award, and she is the co-founder of TIB (Ticino Is Burning), a platform dedicated to co-creation and the performing arts in Ticino.

Réka Csiszér | VÍZ
sound performance | 9.40-10.20 PM

VÍZ is the avant-garde solo project of Réka Csiszér, a Hungarian multidisciplinary artist from Transylvania. In this project, Csiszér delves into the depths of Eastern European melancholy by blending post-industrial textures, spectral glossolalia, the darkest shades of Hungarian folk, and audiovisual noir. Csiszér’s work is deeply cinematic: Lynchian disorientation in time and space emerges from the very first sonic cues. Key references for unraveling Csiszér’s sealed universe include Mihaly Vig’s compositions for Béla Tarr’s films, Eastern European horror folk, and noir aesthetics. On her latest album, Danse des Larmes, recently released by the Athens-based cult label Heat Crimes, dense electroacoustic textures blend with gothic vocal lines to form an imaginary mystery soundtrack. VÍZ's live act has been described as unsettling yet captivating, poised between avant-garde sci-fi opera and ritual incantations. Her obsessive vocal style immediately brings to mind shadow-pop icons such as Diamanda Galás, Julee Cruise, and Lisa Gerrard. The experience is visceral, something you can breathe, touch, and lose yourself in completely.

Réka Csiszér, was born in East Germany and raised in Vienna. She has lived and worked in Austria, Switzerland, and Germany, and currently lives and works between Zurich and Berlin. She has performed in Europe, Asia, and South America. Csiszér is a prolific artist active in numerous multidisciplinary projects and collaborations. Her engaging body of work includes conceptual and audiovisual pieces infused with science fiction, horror, and avant-garde experimentation. She has improvised live soundtracks for silent films with various ensembles and toured extensively in South America and Europe with the Institute for Incoherent Cinematography. Since 2016, Csiszér has been commissioned as a performer, musician, and composer for various theater and film productions, including performances at the Volksbühne in Berlin, the Schauspielhaus in Zurich, and the Schauspielhaus in Stuttgart. She is also developing an experimental solo project called VÍZ, which explores fragmented identity through processed liminal acoustic sounds, analog synthesis, Transylvanian folklore, diary-like melodies, and noise.
