Fluffy Land
Thessaloniki Biennale of Contemporary Arts, 2017
Fluffy Land proposes a hybrid ecosystem, an ecological niche of various life forms with blurred boundaries between objects, subjects, bodies and genders, in and out, science and fiction, Beauty and the Beast. Through playing, we learn to adopt the social roles that allow us to make the transition from childhood to adulthood. Fascinated by the liberating and therefore deeply political dimension of play, the installation is a land of dreams open to interaction and physical communication. Fluffy Land invites the audience to release themselves from their strictly visual relationship with art, and instead embrace its tactical dimension, revisiting their childhood while remaining open to all other possibilities. Fluffy Land is a playground of the uncanny where dreams, fears, fantasies and desires are activated by art, while the rules of human coexistence and gender roles dissolve in action.
