THE WORK IS INSPIRED BY THE INTENSITY OF OUR MODERN LIVES: IN OUR RELATIONSHIPS WITH OURSELVES, WITH OTHERS, WITH WORK, WITH OUR PHONE ADDICTION, AND WITH THE VIRTUAL WORLD THAT BECOMES MORE AND MORE INTERTWINED WITH THE REAL ONE. AS WE MOVE CONSTANTLY BETWEEN REAL AND VIRTUAL SPACES, IT’S HARD TO KNOW WHICH ONE SHAPES US THE MOST.THE PIECE EXPLORES THAT OVERWHELMING TENSION: HOW ALL OF THIS CAN FEEL TOO MUCH, ALMOST APOCALYPTIC AT TIMES, AS IF EVERYTHING IS ON THE VERGE OF COLLAPSING. THAT FRAGILE AND DELICATE MOMENT WHEN EVERYTHING FEELS ON THE EDGE, WHEN LIFE BECOMES SO INTENSE, SO CHARGED AND SO DENSE THAT TIME ALMOST STANDS STILL, AS IF IT HOLDS ITS BREATH.
