The performative project Koppelia_giardino13 draws inspiration from the famous ballet Coppélia, reinterpreting it through the lens of contemporary technologies and new forms of digital identity. At the heart of this research is not only the figure of the mechanical doll as an object of desire and a human replica, but also an autonomous presence: an intelligent and sensitive entity that casts an external gaze on humanity and its evolutionary path.

AiEP is an artistic laboratory that places new technologies at the core of its creative research. Its work focuses on the innovation of performing arts languages, with particular attention to contemporary issues related to the perception of the body, its interaction with virtual environments, and the evolving relationship between humans and technology.
The cultural association Avventure in Elicottero Prodotti (AiEP) was founded in Lugano, Switzerland, in 1988 by Claudio Prati, bringing together artists from different disciplines to explore multimedia arts through the integration of dance, music, video, and design.In 1996, Ariella Vidach and Claudio Prati founded the dance company Ariella Vidach – AiEP in Milan, Italy, establishing an international artistic partnership and expanding their artistic research into the use of new technologies in contemporary dance and the performing arts.
