It is an open project, where whole format fits and doesn’t exist a unique or lineal process, but a concept and ways of work with a common base. Vira-lata is two people working together. Pretends to show things that “change direction”, that have different views, by investigation of different artistic areas such illustration, design, animation... Vira-lata is a body in continuous transformation that moves depending on our interests, situations, possibilities or needs. Talking about a “Vira-lata”, we refer to an attitude, we try to learn from.

Sometimes we stumble on something which shamelessly looks us with enquiring eyes, hungry mouths from ripped placards, bodies from holes or evil shades. Objects’perception plays with our imagination and creates faces and monsters, glances in wall hores or mouth in sewer. We often pause on spaces discovered by chance, wherw we can play and use our imagination as creative tool, in order to involve the others e stimulate all the spectators. Vita-lata proposes a more fantastic way to look, to play and seek, inviting you all to start your own search Io Sono Qua”(Ed: I’m Here) it’s an open project, born in Palermo (Italy) on June 2007, in occasion of “1º International exhibition of multimedia and contemporary arts” by Skip, La Comune. From then on, we are still playing everywhere we go (Brazil, Holland, Spain...)
