GLOBE is an artistic metaphor for Liberty and the power to fly in an imaginary world.
GLOBE starts from the power of children’s imagination that seeks in the simplicity of its memories the strength to be free and fly. It shows us an increasingly aged world where the elders lost their devotion to simplicity, tied themselves to routines, submitted to hierarchies, and were corrupted by the power of money. In this world the envy of being a child compels the elders to organize themselves in an army of repression to children’s imagination. An army that seeks to censor, or ban, children’s freedom to fly, or dream…
The scene of this conflict is a giant globe, with an energetic environment, which involves trapeze artists, dancers, actors, musicians, projections and pyrotechnics, in a constant dynamic of interaction with the audience.
