Matteo Carvone
EROS

schwere reiter

"EROS" is a solo piece in which Matteo Carvone takes on the double role of author and performer. Following his previous work "[FAUN]", this new piece again revolves around a mythological figure: the Greek god Eros. This archetypal figure, which one could easily think of as a cheesy cliché – the winged, mischievous child known to the Romans as Cupid, who shoots arrows to ignite the flames of love – goes far beyond this stereotypical and romantic image.

Eros symbolizes the intersection of pain and pure pleasure, revealing himself as a powerful and often disturbing being capable of manipulating and controlling the thoughts and wills of mortal and divine beings over their hearts. Eros embodies radical vitality, the power of life itself, the intense and penetrating desire that brings forth new life. Eros is love, violent and passionate, reciprocated and unrequited, composed of pure pleasure and pure pain - a dualistic force that is desired and feared at the same time. Has Eros vanished, like any other god? But if that were indeed the case, how could we continue to create without being pierced by his fiery arrows?
