An intersection between life, neighbourhood, and performing arts.

Rabbit Hole intends to generate an organic and live archive that is the result of crossing performance theories and the performance of the neighbourhood day-to-day life, through the contact with shops and services laying next to Rua das Gaivotas 6. The neighborhood comes inside the space in the form of videos, books, audio files and other objects, that can be visited as a testimony of the memory and spontaneous performance of our day-to-day. An image of what might be the legacy of performing arts, itself under constant transformation and validation.

The terrarium as a habitable space, a networked-ecosystem of symbiotic relationships with unstable properties, is confronted with the question of self-fabrication: it will be constructed based on history, narrating the day-to-day, being documentary and specific or as metaphorical and abstract organism?
