My name is Valentina Rodenghi and I come from Milan, Italy. When I was 16 years old, I left Milan to start my professional dance journey. I got my first dance experience in the Offjazz Junior Company in Nice, where I obtained the EAT diploma (Examen d'Aptitude Technique) in contemporary dance. From 2019, I was part of Dance Area's Area Jeune Ballet in Geneva. Since 2020, I have been studying at Zurich University of the Arts (ZHdK) to obtain the Bachelor degree in Contemporary Dance.
As my internship for my bachelor in contemporary dance, I joined the TANZKOMPANIE THEATER ST. GALLEN under the artistic direction of Kinsun Chan, in the season 2022/23. I danced in choreographies by Mauro Astolfi, Francesca Frassinelli, Kinsun Chan, Julian Nicosia, Giovanni Insaudo, Nadav Zelner, Dunja Jocic, Alba Castillo, Antonin Rioche, Luca Signoretti, Marine Besnard, Blenard Azizaj and Tiago Manquinho, among others.
In parallel to my dance career, I obtained a sport management university diploma (in distance learning) at the Université Claude Bernard, Lyon.
DIPLOMA PROJECT
«a moment of honesty»
“a moment of honesty” is a project that investigates the meaning of honesty on stage.
In performances, dancers very often need to deal with their current emotions and detach from them, in order to transmit the ideas of the choreographers. What happens when they have the possibility and freedom to open themselves up to the audience and share something about themselves?
The project is a composition of improvisations where the two dancers (Dustin Eliot and Valentina Rodenghi) gave themselves the task of being themselves with their emotional states, together, in a space, without any wish of wanting to show off their dance. Personal voice recordings are incorporated.
The goal of this project was to allow ourselves to be honest and vulnerable and to let the audience enter in our personal “spaces”, as well as into our honest approach between each other, so that the spectators might feel emotionally involved, touched and perhaps even identify themselves within this project.
