1. Hi David, could you introduce yourself to our readers?
Zdrasti, I am David, my roots are Italian ; during the past 10 years
I spent most of the time traveling around the Planet looking for myself,
try to read the signs that faith show us hidden behind unexpected mirrors,
axepting the daily transformation as main power to follow the infinite lessons
from the life guidebook towards the universal understanding…
2. How did all these performances started?
Venician Carnival made me meeting international street artists
expressing their feelings without borders,
following free waves to move and collaborate with
different people staying in the wind .. that’s how it starts
3. Cumbo – what does it mean?
4. Cumbo – The Circus of freedom – have you find freedom to yourself?
somehow the possibility to create, melting different backgrounds
gives a kind of freedom that is keeping pure
the essence of improvisation of a certain artistic research ..
anyway we live in a wired epoque where we should be flexible
to switch around the vocabulary meaning of this word ..
now very specific in its sense ..
i believe personally any person should find their own way
to describe in the different steps of the human evolution
the shapes of how it changes ..
biggest freedom power is to wish ..
and if u really believe in it ..
it will happen what you dream to be freedom while u r living it …
5. When did you come to Bulgaria… I’ve met you for the first time years ago.
I came with Ossibussi - Moving Art Project in October 2008
and then i met Beglika Fest people and decide to stay…
