The Land of No Curtains
The Land of No Curtains is an immersive installation situated between theater of gestures, visual arts and cinema. It invites the spectator to enter a setting of large and small houses whose windows are open to the gaze and curiosity, revealing absurd and poetic scenes of daily life. We then become silent witnesses of the habits and intimate moments that are played out in these interiors. But as is often the case, appearances can mask hidden, ghostly realities. Lunatics and Poets uses holographic video, objects and the body to embody the desires, hopes and dreams of a society, but also its deepest fears.
A performer interferes in the heart of the installation, like a guide or a spectre from an imaginary world.
