Maya Rota Klein : minimalbaroque

November 10th, 2010
-
Maya Rota Klein is an artist who  works from performance to installation,
from documentary to video art,  from poetry to theater, from stop motion to digital art.
-

-

Her  artistic research is inseparable from her life and is a research that
delves into the universal spirit of all traditions.
Her work goes  through the digital medium that is re-interpreted
and understood to  facilitate its proper posting in the reclaiming of physicality
and  feeling of individuality in an  non-identification optical.

# Ritual 02 _ erasing personal history

WORK / video-performance / 2009

AWARD
semifinalist RomaEuropaWebFactory, 2010

CONCEPT

At the base there are no roots.
Only a weak stand.

Get rid of it, in a transposition of urban ritual,
it can mean to regain its skin, its identity, breathing.

The Allegory of the Cave,
commonly Also Known As Myth of the Cave is an allegory
used by the Greek philosopher Plato in The Republic His work set out to
“our natures in ITS education and education of Want” (514th).
It is written as a fictional Dialogue Between Plato’s teacher Socrates and
Plato’s brother Glaucon at the beginning of Book VII (514th-520th)

Describes Socrates Have a group of people who lived chained
to the wall of a cave all of Their Lives, facing a blank wall.
The people watch shadows projected on the wall
by things passing in front of a fire behind Them,
and begin to ascribe forms to These shadows.
According To Socrates,
the shadows are as close as the prisoners get to viewing reality.
He then Explains how the philosopher is like a prisoner
who is Freed from the cave and comes to Understand
That the shadows on the wall are not constitutive of reality at all,
as He Can Perceive the true form of reality Rather Than
The mere shadows seen by the prisoners.
