A CORRUPTED EMPIRE

From 29/09/2024 to 12/10/2024
“A Corrupted Empire” (provisional title) presents an imagined scenario in which, stranded in a place where time and space are meaningless concepts, confrontation seems to be the only way out of the desolate landscape. Within this conflict, the ego suggests defining itself by denying what it hates and rejects. Against a backdrop with a post-industrial aesthetic, two individuals develop a complex, intricate and intimate relationship that drives them to seek out new perspectives in this apparently exhausted land.
As the piece evolves, these two figures recognise each other in order to confront their own selves, reflecting each other mutually. During this journey they face an internal conflict with the decadent and contradictory aspects of their own identities, which were formed in a context they are trying to leave behind. Their morals and values are questioned due to a disconnect produced by this wasteland; the inner compass that guides the usual development of a person at each stage of life has lost its meaning. The research aims to create and consolidate the titles/scenes that will define the narrative of this story through various means: movement, text, video, music and light.
