With humour and derision, Italian choreographer Silvia Gribaudi takes human imperfections and turns them into art, overcoming clichés and appearances. Inspired by Antonio Canova’s sculpture The Three Graces, Silvia and three male beauties mischievously explore – through dance, words and laughter – the new meanings of the word ‘grace’. Graces or when joy becomes the new canon of beauty.
