“Allilovorá” is a sculptural installation, a portal emerging from research into folk stories— especially those rooted in myth—activated by a performance.

Personal memories, dreams, and experiences merge with myths to form new narratives—both as continuations and ruptures with the old. The stories are re-told from the present in the place where they were born. The new monsters are linked to ancient ones transformed by divine forces against their will, serving as allegories for today’s socio-political systems, where escape is impossible. In this revised order, monsters become the protagonists seeking freedom. Gold, once symbolizing beauty, reward, and desire, is overtaken and possessed by them.
