TOTALITARIA
​a fantastic journey

performance installation, 2016
TOTALITARIA is a performance installation inviting spectators into a permeable maze of mirror films that questions our perception of reality. The participants navigate between both virtual images and physical encounters in a space that seems to transform one into another. Inspired by psychoanalytic research about mechanics of brainwashing and mental repression, Totalitaria aims to explore the inner labyrinth deep inside us, discovering a fictive space where self-censorship and self-sabotage become tangible.
The borders between inner and outer space, performer and spectator, the self and the other are blurred in an ambiguous universe that addresses all senses. During the performance the audience is welcome to come and go freely, change perspective as they wish – situating the project somewhere between the structures of theatrical performance and gallery installation.
