SISYPHUS DREAMING

 

 

A Ritual performance created by six artists who have set out to find out what they're in it for. It being: Life. Through a series of personal rituals the goal has been to answer, right now, the question:

To what do I devote myself?

Nobody else's answer will do.

What keeps me moving? Why am I alive?
Is it Work? Love? Sex?
There is something in you, for you, the thing for which you forsake all else.
Perhaps your children?
You wake each day. While in bed, a switch occurs and you rise.
For what? What are you carrying?
Is it Porn? Food? Guilt?
Don’t look away. Stand inside yourself and smile.

If you answer this, you will have met yourself.
If you do that, you might be ready to meet others.
