[2003, performance-installation]

Vivarium is an open-structure performance-installation that can be presented in different contexts. It shows us a woman in a transparent box. This woman talks with herself and with a visitor (fictitious or real). The topics covered are treated as individual cells shimmering on each other: time, space, hunger, breath and the Other. On the walls, three small video screens show three people living parallel realities of the Vivarium.
