The archive related to FABRICA is dynamic and performative. The archive is composed of a set of practices, hard to harness within schemes or grids suitable for cataloguing. It is a collection of hybrid materials, made of very different signs. It is notย chronological, epochs mingle by time jumps. It is geography rather than history. It is, by its very nature, an anarchic archive, an anarchive. A place where you can create your own way, your own order. A place that is only apparently chaotic, a place free of hierarchy.
If the word archive come from Greek word archรจ (antiquity, principle, primacy, but also authority, government), the process of dance transmission of the ELP project overturns this meaning precisely because it tends naturally to break hierarchies, because it opens up to a free circulation of materials, and to their sharing without ties to the original or the principle.
