sin∞fin The Movie is an art project in three episodes. VestAndPage develop live performance actions in various outstanding locations around the world, analyzing artistically the subject of spheres. At each stage, installations and performances are developed in situ, the final results of which form the episodes of sin∞fin -- a movie series on Live art, out of any filmic genre, an art project set between reality and vision, to stimulate reflection on our common, conflictive contemporary situation.
Here two Jedermann humans, a male and a female, roam far and wide through Patagonia, Tierra del Fuego, India, Kashmir and Antarctica, being seemingly lost within the absurdness of the quotidian. They perceive and define spheres and sanctums: creation, union, incorporation, rejection, collision, invasion, infection and transformation of inner, private, social and universal spheres.
Epidose #1 deals with the sphere of the individual and the couple, #2 with the sphere of society and religion, and #3 with the sphere of the universe and environment.
Take a point, stretch it into a line, curl it into a circle, twist it into a sphere and then get through.
