Divina Signa: rhythmic traces, memories of colour, unique signs, primary and sacred imprints envelop places, spaces, thoughts and people. This is the origin of Divina Signa, a contemporary ritual with a universal language, the genesis of new and singular testimonies of gestural culture that become a link and dialogue with the works of Niele Toroni.

Divina Signa, a new site-specific creation by MOPS_DanceSyndrome, on the occasion of the twentieth anniversary of Festa danzante Ticino, is the result of artistic research inspired by and in resonance with the works of Niele Toroni exhibited at the Museo Casa Rusca in Locarno on the occasion of the first retrospective dedicated to him in a Swiss museum.

Divina Signa, a performance resulting from the research of Ela Franscella together with the dancers of the MOPS company, is a danced haiku that becomes a revelation of the intimate in a mysterious balance, wild and wise.
