The narrative layer

The projections were designed as a subtle narrative layer running alongside the performance, built from archival material and translated into a consistent visual language. Supporting the rhythm and emotional register of the piece, the visuals reinforce the presence of these testimonies without ever overpowering the live action on stage.
