“UN.HABITANTS | To make room for us” is a physical and sensory journey in a cemetery facilitated by the use of headphones. It is articulated as a path in which visuals, sensory and sounds are intertwined and in constant dialogue.
“UN.HABITANTS | To make room for us” raises some questions about how the idea of the death shapes our response to life, providing the basis for the personal conduct codes, as well as for the broader ethical systems. The work wants to lighten and to deal with naturalness about a subject that in our society is often removed, intentionally ignored, considered by many as a taboo. Nevertheless, exactly the impermanence of life irreparably drives each of us to pursue a greater purpose, it impels the search for an essential significance in everyday events, pushes us to live joys and difficulties in a more authentic way. “To make room for us” is meant to be an invitation to the audience to open their perceptual spaces, and create their own reality in a frontier territory between the inner vision and outward vision.
Eventually it urges us to ask ourselves: What would you like to be remembered for?
