LIFE’S MEANING
What is life meaning? Why do people try to find one during the course of their life? Can we really be here just for pure casualty?
These types of questions are the ones that make the population more in crisis and to go through a midlife crisis. But what would happen if we saw life from a different perspective? This is the purpose of this work of art.
Now suppose to be seeing a film that you know is full of meaning. Suppose you are at the end of the film, you did not catch any meaning but you are convinced the other people in the theater did. You would feel stupid, depressed, unable even to catch what’s inside a film.
The problem is that no one has the courage to tell the others how they feel and they all remain convinced of their stupidity.
Now suppose you are going to the theater to see a comedy. There is no expectation. You just have fun and enjoy your film. At the end of it you will not feel frustrated nor will you feel to have lost any time by going to see a comedy, something absolutely meaningless.
That’s the meaning of life: there is no meaning and we should just live our life in the most fun way we find.
In this work of art, as "La solitude" and "I will never be existed", the real work is made by people.
In the first room you will see intellectuals or false intellectuals listening to an actor narrating something that seems meaningful, but in reality is not. You will see those people concentrated in the contemplation of finding a solution where there is no solution at all.
On the other side, in the next room, you will see people chilling, dancing, joking… spending the same amount of time as the people in the first room but enjoying it.
What’s the meaning of life is a question too personal to be given a reply by only one artist, but with that work of art I would like to create a new artistic movement bohemian-like, but less extreme and for everybody, so that anyone can find his own path to follow.
