The Phantom of Normality is inspired by Luis Buñuel's film The Phantom of Liberty. While Buñuel's film examines freedom, The Phantom of Normality, as its name suggests, delves into the ordinary.
With its funny and sad scenes, the performance leads the viewer to consider norms and difference in a subtle and unobtrusive way, using images and music as a guide.
The Phantom of Normality is a collage-like entity and a resonant series of images.
It is a perceptive description of the strangeness of familiar customs and traditions, but also a praise of the beauty and transience of life.
