William Shakespeare: Twelfth night, or what you willThis realized scenography project focuses on the enormous transgender and metamorphotic energy of Shakespeare’s dramatic figures. His comedy ‘Twelfth night or what you will’ is an obsessive game about changing identity, transforming the own body and gender. The protagonists dream to be indifferent in reference of their sexual orientation, they hanker for having all the options of an ‘early form,’ which than could be transformed in any direction. Going back their personal timeline to a ‘hermaphrodite status’ is a regressive utopia for them. The stage design reflects these themes and is to be seen as an ‘early and imperfect form’, as a fluid and self-generazing system. It looks like being designed without any author, seems to be more like a foundling, a leftover, washed-out by sea-waves since years. Time is passing by explicitly in this scenography, all forms are just ‘one moment forms’, they can chance their shape even in the next moment
