CONCEPT / SYNOPSIS OF THE WORK
The work investigates a dimension of presence closely tied to the sacred, access to which requires silence, waiting, and attentiveness. The performing body becomes a device of ritual experience: turning into a medium, becoming other, and yet nothing other than itself. At the end of the performance, the installation apparatus remains accessible to the public, allowing anyone, through the specific procedure, to retrace the ritual practice with their own body.
