Chaos Agent

Even human relations and relationships are now “lived” predominantly behind a protective screen, with people forgetting that this screen "protects" from life and diminishes everything.

Honestly, while trying not to say things just to provoke, I think perfect balance lies on chaos borders’. That elusive space of electric and electrifying quiet, in which there is no crystallization nor stagnation and at the same time, it is not right in the middle of the storm.

I observe and listen to the people around me and I see many fans of order, light, definition and clarity. I wonder why and I imagine that the answer resides in some sort of fear of the unknown, of what we cannot foresee and therefore, control. I believe that routine and homogenisation make the existence seem safer and provide the illusion of predictability and planning. Even human relations and relationships are now “lived” predominantly behind a protective screen, with people forgetting that this screen "protects" from life and diminishes everything. For all these reasons, I stand on the opposite side, I want to be an agent of chaos, of storm and impetus, of what is upsetting and surprising.

If you are confused, if you have doubts, if you dream of throwing yourself off a cliff believing that you can fly, if you enjoy your own fear, if you think you have only one life and a very limited time and do not want to waste it, if you have an urgency for life, you are on my side and I beg you to do your best to ensure that the world does not become a theatrical representation of deadly boredom.
