Would you like to have a performance at your home?

“When Angels speak of Love” is a ritual performance that takes place inside homes and with those who live there. Inspired by Ghostbusters, a team of four performers visits families and emotional constellations to open up a space for listening and collective imagination, summoning the invisible presences that permeate intimacy: grief, legacies, memories, dreams, and different ways of loving.

Each session transforms the home into a ritual territory, made up of shared stories, games, oracular gestures, words of struggle, emotional offerings, silent dances and everyday objects that take on new meanings. In the encounter between hosts and visitors, between care and contradiction, between laughter and commotion, a question arises: what if intimacy could be a safe place?

The performance crosses the thinking of people such as bell hooks, Edouard Louis, Alexandre Coimbra Amaral and Marshall Rosenberg, evoking angels not as saving entities, but as internal, cellular presences that whisper other ways of love – less idealised and more embodied. These angels have no wings: they have flesh, doubts and a desire to learn.

‘When Angels speak of Love’ is a call for us, amid the rubble of what we have inherited, to imagine fairer bonds, more vibrant relationships, and to cultivate an intimate, collective, and radical love.

This work stems from a personal process of loss and attempted understanding: the breakdown of a deeply desired family unit, the mourning of a life project that fell apart, and the desire to offer my daughter and the world another possible vision of ‘family’ — one where love manifests itself as a daily practice, and not just as a promise or ideal. To address these issues, I invited close collaborators to join me in this process, bringing their own stories of love and violence. Together, we give shape to a performative response that is, at the same time, listening, exposure, and an attempt at reparation.
