How do I archive a performance which is not mine. How do they perform an archive. It’s heavy, undisclosed, fragile and partial. Archive/installation/sculpture/ performance with
pictures coming from the documentation of Medea’s Visions creation, a performance by Alessia Siniscalchi and Kulturscio’k live art collective. The archive is engraved in blocks of printed papers/
photographs bound with a plastic ribbon coming from an on-line low cost printer. The ribbon is fragile and cans be easily broken. Blocks have different sizes and weights.

To archive is the beginning. How many pictures. How do I store. What’s the meaning. How do I a archive a performance which is not mine.  Archive is all. Archive is nothing.
