• Gray Zone: The space, the artist and the ashen spectator in performative works beyond the black box
  Igor Gasparini
  Guidance: Prof. Dr. Daniela Gatti

Gray Zone dialogues between body and architecture in a conscious desire to dwell in the in-between spaces. The work places a body between everyday life and the extra-everyday, and calls the ashen spectator to an immersive experience between performing arts and visual arts, between movement and paralysis, between impulse and rupture. A state of transformation that is established through permanence. An insistence on presence and an invitation to share and subvert. The event time is confused with the museum visiting periods, and the audience is captured by its own autonomy in the face of actions that unfold through the gray spaces. What states will the body be subjected to? To survive or to give up?
