FAILING TO LEVITATE IN MY STUDIO
text by Samuel Beckett Athens and Epidaurus Festival (Athens, Greece)
Concept, Direction, Scenery | Dimitris Kourtakis
Video | Jérémie Bernaert Artistic collaboration | Efi Birba Music | Dimitris Kamarotos A performer, shut in his studio and cut off from the rest of the world, uses his body as a canvas, a field to be experimented with. Within the model of a two-story building, the performer films himself and his surroundings. Audiences on both sides of the building are invited to a secret, ultimately deceptive spectacle, gradually coming to the realization that they share the performer’s predicament: they are similarly confined to their own, personal chamber.
