it is a kingdom that children build out of sight of adults.
It is a theater without a stage of an unknown time where the people gather like in a village’s market place. Princesses, murderers, bears, aliens, all parade in a cheerful and festive crowd. Not only in order to please and attract attention, costumes are handmade with carefully details, allowing the cosplayers to embody their favorite characters.
Despite the sweltering heat, they are of coats, masks, weapons of their heroes, more precisely they become these heroes.
Their gender is not very differentiated, a girl could choose a male character and inversely. This mimesis is amazing and their gestures, expressions are like performance art, often with an assumed provocative attitude: a trans-gender maturation that leads to a transformation into an animal, such a “kawaii” rabbit or a myopic cat. Violence and morbid are alongside with the beauty and enchantment in a cruel world of fairy tales which reveal the human nature.
The catharsis of a mutant generation is stored and shared through networks made of screen mobile phones.These digital mirrors open a kingdom that moves away from childhood. No thought is expressed through the eyes deliberately masked by colored lenses – nothing but a reflection electric increasing a feeling of strangeness and isolation
It is an internal fight. In this crowd, these heroes are alone with their destiny.
