Laura Pizzirani
Who are the villains? Dangerous, terrifying and cruel but also fascinating figures. Bolognese artist Laura Pizzirani guides young people on an exploration of the monstrous figures of mythology through texts, iconographies, songs, films and theatre performances. Their hybrid bodies, belonging to different genres and species, simultaneously frighten and attract us. But are we sure that they are really so terrible? What would they tell us if we talked to them and listened to their side of the story? Let’s try to be attracted instead of frightened!
