From Penelope to chaos following the thread with which Mary tied a mountain

By: Elena Vacca (Author and performer)

Penelope wove during the day, and at night she patiently unraveled her work to begin again the next day in the same way. Centuries pass, and we still remember the magic of that daily weaving and unraveling. Another woman named Maria Lai united the mountain to her village, Ulassai, creating with all her fellow citizens a marvelous bond that will never be forgotten. The thinnest threads bind us even across the greatest distances in space and time, and even the smallest change in the weave is enough to give us a new pattern and a different ending to the story. But isn’t this precisely the beauty of chaos theory?
In this workshop, we’ll follow colorful threads, we’ll try to weave with love, intertwining, knotting, and untying ourselves, and leaving it to the words we’ll find together to tell what unites us. Poems, songs, scientific formulas, drawings, and thoughts—everything is allowed to write our story.
