LARA DÂMASO
ongoingRepresenting and accompanying the career of Swiss-Portuguese
artist, performer, vocalist, and movement director Lara Dâmaso. Her polymorphic
practice unfolds across both ephemeral and permanent forms, moving
fluidly between performance, visual arts, and music. At its core, her
work investigates the sensitive, vibratory dialogue between humans and
the spaces they inhabit, exploring the relationship between voice and
body through notions of transformation, fluidity, and interdependence.
This approach enables her to establish a remarkably direct and emotional
form of communication, grounded in the idea of listening as total
presence.COLLABORATION

DIE & RETRY
ANGELS FRONT
ongoing
Production and advisory for the serial and open-ended performance work DIE & RETRY by Angels Front (Flora Bouteille & Victor Villafagne).
DIE & RETRY is a critical simulation inverstigating contemporary forms of hybrid conflict. The project is centered on the story of Family N. within a near-future context of cognitive warfare. The family becomes the core of an apparatus in which competing narratives are produced and dismantled, testing the boundaries between information, fiction, and lived experience. The project examines how narratives and worldviews are shaped within intimate relationships, reflecting broader transformations of belief and trust driven by mass media, artificial intelligence, and increasingly sophisticated forms of informational manipulation. Drawing on methodologies from forum theatre, LARP (live-action role-playing), and psychosocial experiments, audiences are directly confronted with the emotional and moral dimensions of their actions through open scenarios that evolve according to their choices.
