There is no Country but childhood’s (R. Barthes)

A theatrical performance between tenderness and morbidity.

Are we ever truly innocent?

A conversation between our inner space and the very special space of this abandoned factory.

This special space, a huge room without windows, became part of the performance.

The sound had an intense reverberation giving its own timbre, and we had the opportunity to work visually with light and shadow. The visual element interacted with the theatrical.

The reappropriation of public space as a social space and as a place for managing memory is a direct involvement in its political management.

Space is a social construction that is directly related to the understanding of different stories, individual and collective, of people and the production of cultural phenomena.

    Authentic The first photo with the golden frame around the overgrown tree on the concrete, is a hymn to Nature and expresses the need to protect it, recognizing its authenticity and value.  Placing the frame around the element of nature symbolizes our distance from it as an experience while showing that we are now approaching it,…

    Guilding Abandoned Insect Nests As we explored the burnt down, abandoned Psiloritis building, I discovered what looked like small balls of clay thrown on the wall: sand-coloured, mysterious blobs fixed in corners high up on walls and against the ceiling. My curiosity was piqued and when I got up close I realized they were abandoned…
