Why do humans do themselves harm? Why do they destroy the nature they are part of?
These are the questions that the artist, as part of humankind, asks herself, through a variety of expressive spaces and languages including performances, fragments of historical films and animated drawings on paper. The uncertainty that marks mankind’s destiny finds an echo in the call of the crows: their “cras, cras!” means “tomorrow, tomorrow!” in Latin. These cries may signify indecision and the eternal postponement of choice, but also the will to work for a better future. The whispers of “nevermore” pronounced by the artist and transformed into voices both feminine and masculine act like a promise sealed with a kiss – a promise that takes wing and is carried off by the wind.
