LITANY FOR A DEAD EARTH

The installation is performed in 4 different physical spaces through which the audience moves. The movement is like a dance. The audience encounters movement scenarios in film, sculpture, remote digital movies, sonic landscapes. The fictional content of the scenarios requires time shifts (from past to future, future to present).

The interactive scenarios (sculpture corridor, telescope) are works-in-progress. The VESPUCCI project is the prototype for a new dance opera MIRAK which is under development. "Litany for a Dead Earth" is the first stage of the libretto.
