Is it possible to rewrite reality through art?
What kinds of scenarios can we imagine with it?
Elisabetta Zavoli and Stefania Prandi created a series of choral scenes, portraits, and details reflecting the border between fiction and reality. They met eight artists during a pandemic year: actors, actresses, and dancers from freelance Italian theatre companies, among which they chose Teatro Patalò. Through our words and eyes, they enacted joy, hope, sadness and exhaustion moments. They created a continuous dialogue between reality and fiction, as if on a film set where actors, actresses, and dancers play themselves. Using a directorial mode approach based on their stories as inspiration, they created a visual narrative that breaks from the pandemic.
