  • History of Ecstasy, è una performance site-specific che è la summa di tutti i suoi lavori precedenti: una via crucis metaforica scandita da più atti, a metà strada tra sacro e profano, sogno e realtà, tenerezza e violenza. Partendo dall’attualità e dalle proprie vicende biografiche, l'artista mette in scena una personale agiografia rivisitando l'iconografia cristiana. La performance si basa su una dualità che ne costituisce il fulcro e la forza, tra il puro e il sordido, redenzione e dannazione.
