Our senses tell us a world of sensations as the magnifying glass that indicates the hidden in the obvious, showing the fear, poetry, frustration, freedom and its restrictions. An invitation to wonder, to be fascinated by what surrounds us with the naivety of a child, it
unwinds like a zapping of characters and worlds, sometimes similar and sometimes contrasting, painting before our eyes a varied and poetic picture that triggers the imagination in the spectator. On the whole there is a “crafty” quality linked to poor art since the materials used for costumes and set design are all handmade or reused objects.
