Description	BIOGRAPHY My name is Lorenzo Capecci and I was born in Italy. I started dancing by taking Hip Hop and BreakDance classes and after two years I was also studying Ballet and contemporary dance. In 2021 I graduated from the Dance High School of Teramo and I joined the Bachelor Contemporary program of the ZHdK. Here I had the chance to improve my technique, to explore my style and to work with important choreographers such as Dunja Jocic, Nadav Zelnar. I am attending my third year of University as a stagier at Scapino Ballet Rotterdam having the opportunity to tour in the Netherlands with the company. DIPLOMAPROJECT Globalization is a process wherein diverse cultures have the opportunity to come into contact and be influenced by each other. This happened in the dance field around the 2000s, when contemporary dance met various other styles, that helped to create different nuances of it, in the period that we now call Fusion Dance. With this project I want to investigate where urban dance and contemporary dance meet and contrast, to research where the boundaries are and explore how contemporary dance can be inspired by different beats.
