NICHOLAS NEGLIA CAROPRESO

NONAMECODE

Interactive performance, 2021.
Bastioni S. Giacomo, Brindisi.

The performance featured two professional actors moving among the audience within the surrounding space. Their movements were robotic, as if unable to fully perceive reality. They did not interact with the audience, and their identities were completely obscured by balaclavas. Devoid of any physical cues such as clothing or body language, the only way to engage with them was by scanning a QR code tattooed on the nape of each actor’s neck. This directed viewers to their Instagram profiles, where a prior post had explained their deliberate non-physical presence.
