roles roll

We are the roles we are called to play. The roles intertwine, one entering into the other. It is much easier to live when roles are distinct, well-defined (Only) then we are free_

A person stands still. Its’ body is wrapped in ropes to hinder its’  movement.

Each rope highlights a factor that determines a person’s identity: sexuality, religious beliefs, external appearance, economic status, family, environment, socio-political position, origin, profession, place of residence, age, gender, and more.

The rapid alternation of roles, the “success” in some of them, or the “failure” in others, makes the person insecure (…)

The audience is called upon to help their fellow human by giving the freedom of choice.
