Artist Statement
My theatrical works no longer require an actual theatrical place… Not necessarily actors, stage, or big production and so on… I do not care where the performance will take place, or how many performances there will be. What's important is the talk taking place after the work; the talk that describes the art-work to be an accomplished event; the talk that is here and there at once; the talk that will produce ideas; the talk that becomes the performance itself, and without which it's as if the art-work never took place…
