Scar

Holland Festival in Frascati

A scar.

A trace of something that happened to you. An injury. A wound. A cut.   
External – opening the skin, the border of your body. Internal – a secret burning inside you.   

This year, the Holland Festival programme at Frascati is curated under the notion of Scar. A scar is a physical fact, not a symbol or a metaphor. Because all scars take on flesh, act on the body.   

This performative quality of scars bonds all works of art gathered into the programme Scar.  Dance and theatre performances, visual arts, talks, ceremonies – all invoke scars of different origins. They address stories of sexual violence, illness, invisibility, racism or transgenerational trauma. They let images emerge – poetic, edgy or displacing.  

Every scar is individual, and so is the archive the body stores them in. With this programme, we want to celebrate the beauty, power and ambiguity of scars: to make different artworks shine through the brokenness of history and the actuality of violence, through the vulnerability of our bodies and sensitivity of interhuman connections.   

We invite you to welcome your own scars and let them become your navigation and support.
