Up or Down ?
0.0 x 0.0
This is the reality of the torments that humanity has imposed on itself, an eternal fall in rising (!) Every day more. It is the story of the punishments inflicted on men and women by the same under cover of an idea of domination, reign and mystical order of a beyond invented and written by the human being. It is a story of three monotheistic religions, many wars, glory and power, money, all abuse. It is the story of lust, the destruction of nature, the exploitation of the other, of a selfish society and people eager for wealth. It's a story of blood flowing, a long drift. It’s everyone’s disgust, carnage for what, where? Climb or fall in an endless tunnel, get lost in labyrinths, but do not hide your face and do not forget the victims of history, be lucid, that is the purpose of Up or Down. This table started in 2017, as a therapy. If the power of religions and its multiple excesses and consequences have revolted me for a very long time, at the start of the 21st century when all extremism has been liberated, I had to exorcise this anger which haunted me. A theater scene depicting world hunger gave me the initial idea (the 2 central characters and the disgust). Then came the idea of a mid-historical, half-geographic fresco outlining this disgust. Internet giving access to all the elements, I had all the trouble of the world at hand, only remained to stage it.
