Medea’s Visions archives number two: building up the performance at the Ménagerie de Verre, Paris.

Medea’s Visions is multidisciplinary piece from the myth of Medea / Eve.

Under the direction of Alessia Siniscalchi, Italian contemporary artist Valerio Berruti sets up his painted works, while composer Phil St. George plays live and I develop my photographic process inside the performance. Medea’s Visions archives feature pictures starting from the performance’s creation process in 2018.

In this second stage of the work, after the photographic studio in the previous stage, I continue my Interaction with performers turning all the rehearsals space into a photographic studio. Actors pose in front of my lens as part of their performance.

I continue exploring theatre photography as an endless archive building that plays a key role in a performance. An archives book in pdf is available here. It also serves as my second manifesto on stage photography. The first one is here.

Medea’s Visions

With a free adaptation by/adaptation libre de Alessia Siniscalchi, inspired by George Bernand Shaw, Dario Fo, Franca Rame, Euripide, Grillpartzer. It is in New York that Alessia Siniscalchi imagined her interpretation of Medea. Thus was born this atypical dialogue between Eve and Medea, an installation that will invest the wonderful and mythical Ménagerie de Verre in Paris and Teatro Bellini in Naples with art works by Valerio Berruti, pictures by Giovanni Ambrosio, the music of Phil St.George, the writing by Paulina Mikol, Benjamin Sillon’s projections, Ania Martchenko’s materials and Kulturscio’k’s performers. Imagine a free adaptation of Medea related to Eve and Jason to Adam. Imagine a site – specific process that includes 17 different moments from the myth in non stop cycles. Imagine a mix of performance, art, songs, live music and a creative emotional trip through this.
