'regresso'

"return" is a multimedia installation and performance created especially for the Arcos space of the Theatro Municipal de São Paulo, as part of the project RedExperience, commissioned by Iscream Project, in May 2017.

The work investigates the act of revisiting individual memories through the physical manipulation of architectural elements – in this case, the stones of a historic building. The performative action consists of carefully removing stones from the wall and occupying the empty spaces with one’s own body. This symbolic gesture establishes an intimate relationship between presence, absence and subjective reconstruction.

The performance documentation is projected onto the structure itself in the form of video mapping, creating visual and narrative layers that reinforce the fragmented nature of memory and belonging. “regresso” proposes a reflection on identity, space and the passage of time, while transforming the body into a tool for excavation and poetic occupation.
