The contemporary version of The Rite of Spring?
Everyone is building his own alter of humanity, everyone is a part of it.
An integrated ode of joy and sorrow.
People are unrestrainedly producing and consuming various goods.
Short videos and online information fill every gaps in consciousness with fragmented information.
The prosperity of the diverse world is contained in one screen.
Ceaseless operation has turned the Earth into a huge landfill.
We are the witnesses, the builders and the share holders of the time.
“The Communal Theater" has gradually grown over the past two months.
The accumulation of materials, bodies, sounds and actions. This monument reflects the paradox……
Orderly, complicated/hardworking, easygoing/compusory, collapsing
The altar we construct not only enshrines the revelry of civilization but also displays the remnants of it.
