Our Sea II
Secrets of the Infinite Sea
Secrets of the Infinite Sea is the second installment of a larger project called Mare Nostrum, exploring Mediterranean realities and myths. In Secrets of the Infinite Sea, and following two residencies in Izmir and Marseille, Lily Abichahine presents a new interpretation of the myth of Prometheus while diving into ancient manuscripts and animal livers’ readings, just like a contemporary haruspex. She furthermore questions her own fears, in parallel to migration flows in the Mediterranean Sea, from ancient to contemporary times. The lecture-performance is accompaniedby a video and the duration of the show is approximately 55 min.
