The play questions the human mind and its seemingly diminished capacity to recognize the fact that it is sabotaging its own future. Based on a questioning of ideas about people and their connection to what surrounds them technologically and organically, Felix Landerer plays with the idea of a recognized human catalog of movement and connection. Ideas about what we can adapt to, what belongs to us and what doesn't, set the parameters for his approach to the subject.
As an example, we can take a prosthesis, as a symbol of something that belongs to us or not.
The piece is placed in a kind of exhibition. Exhibitions of human behavior and the body as something perfect. Something with flaws. Something natural. Something that could be a reminder of the natural world we were once involved in.
