Performance and visual installation [2006]
THE MIRROR THAT ELSEWHERE
The performance and visual installations are dedicated to the child's soul - in all of us. A soul capable of seeing things as they are and turning them into poetry. Children who watch and are forced to participate in wars, violence and poverty. The soul we all need to create peace. Borges, who preserves the memory of the tiger from his childhood in his poetry. To the old who, who face the meaninglessness of refugees, who return to the open world of a child and accept the transience of life. The soul we need to create art and believe in its power.
It uses texts by Borges, Arnaldo Antunes, Ben Okri, Pema Chödrön and documentary materials from "Easy Targets: Violence Against Children Worldwide”, Human Rights Watch Testimonies"
