I firmly believe that in the 21st century (even more so as we live in a relatively toxic symbiosis with our own electronic devices) THEATER happens INSIDE us, not necessarily far from us, on a stage with... lights and smoke… e.g. In the end, for me, THEATER is a collection of triggers that can open opportunities for introspection and especially critical thinking about everything that surrounds us.

Using my syncretic artistic means, my hybrid theatrical installation speaks about how a child who does not yet have the vocabulary of verbal and emotional expression, it perceives ABANDONMENT, PSYCHOLOGICAL VIOLENCE, PHYSICAL VIOLENCE, NEGLECTION, these traumatic events sometimes irreparably sculpting her/ his destiny and subsequently AFFECTING ALL LEVELS OF INTERACTIONS with the surrounding reality.

In the new HEI - House of European Institutes space in Bastion you can expect the presentation of a work-in-progress rather close to its final version. An immersive non-verbal sound installation accompanied by two QR codes that redirect you online - where the other 2 perspectives on transgenerational trauma "reside". Grandmother, Mother and Little girl - three generations and different parenting idioms.
