About

Flavia Mastrella and Antonio Rezza, awarded the Golden Lion at the Venice Biennale, bring one of their historic shows to the stage. A man photographs himself to feel less alone and slips into the delirium of politics and loneliness. He opens a studio where he immortalizes himself, now pretending to be a client, now an expert photographer. And thanks to the multiplication of his image he comes to believe he is a politician speaking to a crowd. A crowd that isn’t there. But that electrifies him like all the things we will never have. Between one speech and another he proclaims himself builder of mobile hospitals that move directly into patients’ homes. And inside these hospitals there is always him: under the clothes of the chief physician, under those of the patient and under those of the veiled nuns who replace medicine with the instruments of faith. Soon, thanks to the inflation of his image, he is convinced he is no longer alone.
