RRRRR

RRRRR is a performance work choreographing hallucinatory and derailed structures as ways to re-question how is logic formed, who defines the understandable and what could derailing open up in the ways in which we experience reality. The project moves somewhere between peripheral otherness, disembodied language, derailed threads of thoughts: virtual fantasy, self-records, overlapping realities and confused truths. Daze of who, where, what and when; a voyage into a poetry of disorientation.

The performance project is complemented by a printed publication, RRRRR.
