THE MYTH OF THE BIRTH LA GORDA performance

Brno, Czech Republic, 2019
Semestral project at FAVU´s aula
projection: Woody and Steina Vašulka: Noisefields 1974

"The modern man needs a ritual. Through the ritual, we are working on the most exalted thing in ourselves. It is precisely because we lack the rituals so much that we are drowning in mediocrity ... ... I will express myself exclusively through the unconscious. I let it flow through the stage as freely as dreams unfold. I will ignore the intellect of the audience. I will not make the definitions of symbols available, I will simply use them in all their infinite complexity and I will let everyone interpret them on their own." Alejandro Jodorowsky

For my semsetral project I created performance in the platform of ritual. Spiritual transformative ceremony. I used general shamanistic methods and transform them to components of the 21st century, West world. Those component are closer to communicate with audience than to try the ancient native methods. But the effect should work the same. Remove the usual, rational way of thinking and percive the experience instead.
