"Al is a physicALcosm1cm3tasculpturALpopmysticsciFichoreo3xp3rienc3.“
Belfiore bombards the audience with a mixture of brutal techno music and shaman songs, with alchemist rites, lightsaber and aluminium foil while simultaneously drawing the spectator into his universe, located somewhere in between a vision of the future and trash, science fiction and pop. On his journey into poetic, fictional worlds, he shifts spaces of understanding and explores the possibilities of bodily transformation: under which circumstances do we create physical experience and how do we translate it into emotions? To what extent are we subjected to the rites and codes of society, and what can be created if we abandon them to experience our environment anew?
