Prefaby

Prefabs is an original visual and sound project, set on a formic table, freely varying motifs of everyday life in a block of flats (prefabricated concrete houses) - a symbol of a fulfilled dream of modern living in the countries of the former Eastern Bloc. It is also pre-apocalyptic concrete idyll based on the stories of three nameless neighbours. This project talks about their fragile ordinariness by extraordinary means. 

It is an intimate conceptual one-man show for 7 spectators referring to tragic havary in Chernobyl. The main scenographic element of this project is set of seven irregular concrete cubes referring to the architecture of a concrete-panel housing estate.

Audience: adult, children 12+
