Artist Statement

Electronic Cabaret

A performance featuring mutant-like figures to whom video prosthetics have been transplanted. These videocreatures are colourful beings in constant mutation, true human sculptures radiating a Brazilian fragrance. Come and meet the Bolero Singer, the Videopuppet and the Electronic Clown.
