Within the universe, being as it is a closed system, entropy grows constantly. At a given moment, entropy reaches its maximum, producing an equilibrium of all temperatures and pressures that results in the heat death of the universe. An end as a new beginning. Because we descend from monkeys and bacteria, but also from stars and galaxies. We are composed of dust from the Big Bang. As Hubert Reeves asks himself, do we contain the memory of the universe? We activate scientific concepts in a (theatrical) space, creating new (fictionalised) realities, reformulating and re-questioning the codes of theatre and installation.

Her work takes the stage as the meeting point for the various disciplines/tools she uses and develops in order to activate or trigger actions that question the format and the codes of the act of representation.
