Orthographe

Forl�/Ravenna

The audience sits inside a camera obscura: a lightproof room with a small aperture through which some light can pass. The light in question comes from the adjacent room where the actors stand. The play is projected through a lens and onto the wall in front of the spectators. 
The images of dazzling quality render the actors glowingly two-dimensional as they evolve in the dark. For this project, Orthographe was inspired by la Nouvelle iconographie de la Salpetri�re, 18th century photographic albums by the renowned French neurologist Dr. Charcot. Most of the subjects in these albums were young women interned in the epilepsy ward of the famed Parisian hospital. In order to prove his theories on hypnosis and hysteria, Dr. Charcot conducted astounding and often traumatising experiments on his patients.
