Matrioska was born in 2022 during Trasmissioni, in Tuscania. The idea was to open up a research space that deconstructs the setups of the original performance. A fallow garden where we can become forest, where weeds are free to grow, where we let go of what cannot endure, aware that something else will grow on it.
It is a durational event, and this dilation of time allows movements, memories, videos, autobiographies and archive fragments to emerge. Matrioska is โputting back into actionโ what settled immaterially over time.
There is no difference between the performative space and the โoutsideโ, there is no beginning and no end, there is not just a front view. Spectators are free to go in and out of the space, and linger as long as they think it necessary.
