To what extent can everyday objects be responsible for major natural disasters? What impact do our actions have on the other side of the planet?
The State of the World (When You Wake Up) puts into play cause-and-effect relationships between small gestures and big consequences. Edi is an 8-year-old boy with a very busy life. Every day he consumes and discards many things, until he receives an unexpected toy invitation. At that moment, he begins a journey through a world invisible to his eyes, marked by the climate crisis. In a world at odds with itself, you have to look to the past to make things right in the future. Time is always ticking.
The State of the World (When You Wake Up) is the first show in a diptych aimed at thinking about the state of the world – natural, political, geographical, social, historical, economic and human.
