Gea Culpa is a land of shared solitude.
It is a world of figures and sounds belonging more to the psyche than to reality, a waking dream.
Gea’s story is an interrupted narrative, a sliding door, a hiccup that leads to a confrontation with another being: a vaguely defined figure, a hypothetical self left caged.
From that moment on, a limbo opens up, made of time and choice, cage and freedom, limit and overcoming.
Is the unmarked crossroads to choose a brazen daily life shared with your errant self, settling for a halved reality, or to escape this chain of interruptions and rediscover freedom?
It will be necessary to abandon oneself, to be completely reborn, and every now and then, with nostalgia, to think, “Wish you were here,” before moving on.
Duration 30 minutes
“Vanno contro il titolo: sembrano intrinsecamente senza colpa. Più precisamente: come se non sapessero cosa sia il peccato. Come l'animale, come il primo umano in Paradiso.”
