LE·IUGEMENT
To undersatand the sacred as a deity spread over the landscape it is required to listen, to get to the right place and perform all necessary actions: a voice will rise, it will have something to say and it will be impossible to counter it. Human beings are the anomaly and the consequences are unavoidable. In “Le lugement” Baroni relies on ancient Greece and its oracular traditions to touch the deepest fears of our time, fears about the end of the world as a disaster caused by our very own behaviours. Between the distant past and nowadays, nature still holds the power to connect us all in her silence, which is never complete, with the peremptoriness of its presence: this is where human beings – presented as four women from different generations – can try to find a new repositioning by witnessing those presences that elude our calculations.
