The text recounts the life and work of choreographer Carolyn Carlson, an innovative and visionary figure on the contemporary dance scene. An American of Finnish origin, Carlson found her artistic dimension in Europe, where she developed a unique style, combining philosophy, spirituality and creativity. Her works, such as *Undici Onde* and *Underwood*, reflect deep and complementary themes: the sea and the earth, the abstract and the concrete. Influenced by Zen and avant-garde artistic currents, she has always sought to transcend the limits of the visible to create works that interweave body, music and speech. Her dance celebrates harmony and imagination, inviting the audience to explore new dimensions between dream and reality.
