Bambula was conceived in 2015 by Gabriella Catalano and Paolo Rosini as an artistic project that celebrates the union of expressive forms and their creative purposes.

Movement research, its expressive potential and the adaptability of the physical body to different performative contexts represents the input and the key to its compositions.

 

Bambula's work combines dance and physical theatre. It has explored relationships with visual poetry, photography, video Art, object manipulation and experimented with finding original as well as live improvised sound scores for its pieces.

 

 

Mainly inspired by themes of social, aesthetic and speculative nature, each work aims to lead into a journey of spontaneous reflection where our human aspects are to be found and placed at the fore.

​

The company has performed at Resolution! (The Place, London), Black Box Dance Theater Festival (Plovdiv, Bulgaria), 25th Quinzena de Danca de Almada (Lisbon), Kilowatt Festival, Corpi Uscenti, Resisterecreare, ADH, TenDance Festival (Italy), among others.
