Takovo je Vrime
This short multimedia performance emerges from the story of how big corporations affected everyday life of local people on a small island in the Adriatic sea, after a bridge was built there in the year 1980. The story follows the development and effects of globalisation on geologically remote areas such as islands.
The piece aims to immerse the audience with language (Chakavian and old Icelandic language), music (microtonal music from island Krk and traditional Icelandic singing style) and minimalist scenography inspired by traditional Japanese Noh theatre style, combining unique traditions from three islands: Krk (Croatia), Iceland and Honshu (Japan). Integrating cutting-edge technology such as movement sensors and audio-reactive visuals, it explores identity, diversity, and the fragile balance between cultural heritage and modernity.
