FΛRSΛ
"FΛRSΛ" is a stage production inspired by Plato's Allegory of the Cave. The research explores the concepts of perception, deception and transmission and is organized around games of optical illusion, sound deception and physical dysmorphia.
FΛRSΛ reflects on the manipulation of information and its impact on the formation of individual and collective perceptions of reality. The approach emphasizes the way a narrative is framed by the observer, dismantling the notion of a “singular truth” and exploring how facts can be shaped and reinterpreted depending on the perspective.
Farces are not mere theatrical exaggerations - they are real situations and systems in which appearances hide deep contradictions and manipulated information is used to manufacture ideals.
"FΛRSΛ" explores how misinformation and oversimplification - good vs. bad, true vs. false - have come to shape our political realities, our empathy, and even our sense of self.
What happens to the human body in an age when it can be faked, copied, augmented—when voices are synthetic and images are illusions? Where does trust go, and what is left of reality? Are we in the midst of a new moment to imagine, expand, and reconfigure what it means to exist?
