Oxymoron project: The unbearable gravity of being
by Gabriel Romero

In this age of posthumanism, where the relationships between human and nonhuman entities are constantly expanding, how can we reinterpret our relationship with objects? What other worlds, invisible to our senses, might exist in the same space-time? What would happen if the laws governing our reality were altered and other points of view were suddenly presented to us?
"Project Oxymoron: The Unbearable Gravity of Being" is a project that combines contemporary circus, physical theater, new magic, and visual arts to create a stage piece. The project's aim is to direct our gaze toward possible scenarios that might exist in other space-time dimensions… where the laws of logic and physics are different… like a space where classical notions of cause and effect are expanded and multiple possibilities are proposed around a situation. For example, when the absurd and the dream world intertwine in such a way as to give rise to unexpected situations and intriguing atmospheres. All around us exist "objects" (forces, dimensions, events...) that we cannot deny and that elude the comprehension of our senses, yet which nevertheless influence the world.
