STAGE

Video installation (single-channel with audio) and props
Variable dimensions / Loop 4’41”
Twin video of “Cocoon”, “Stage” is also made in partnership with the group of patients A Voz dos Usuários at the Institute of Psychiatry of The Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. Each of the patients chooses an object that can never “miss in their cocoon” and brings this object onto stage in a group-created choreography, which revises the question of where is home to the psychiatry patient and possibly expands the territories normally designed for reason and madness into creative fantasy. The entire stage or cocoon was displaced to a forgotten empty terrain, a non-territory between buildings in the busy city for the series of photographs called “Ghetto”. The song “Nothing” is also a creation of the group for this video pantomime.
