Mass project was born while at artistic research residency at Metal, Liverpool. In an attempt to create a fluid adaptable score for channeling a point of intersection of given space and time involving language.

an animated story attempting to trace some of the causes of violence. A monkey cancels a cat, and the cat finds itself on a journey across the monkey's inflamed subconscious upon lifting a lid on top of the monkey's head. A collaboration with a visual artist le___capucin.

Absurd-driven comical fantasia following a protagonist during several unusual days of his. On his way to his mom’s birthday party, Garry ends up in a parallel dimension. As much as he’d like to leave the strange place immediately, he has to stay there for a while to figure out if there’s a way for him to leave that won’t end the lives of all the inhabitants, as the local prophecy suggests.

*to be premiered in 2025

The story of a primate raised by a group of street thugs, and then rescued by researchers who brought him to an academic institution for rehabilitation and an experiment aiming to bring him up into a humanlike social creature. With the help of a scientist, the primate strives to integrate into society but often struggles to adhere to the moral principles he's been taught by the scientists, and instead both his wild and criminal backgrounds manifest

Featuring outstanding physical comedy and primate vocalisations by a comedian Alex Streaman (so far eternalised as the Telegram sticker pack “Complex Emotions Alex”), the show, while appearing lighthearted, delves into timeless existential themes once pondered by literary figures like Oscar Wilde, Rudyard Kipling, Leo Tolstoy, and Mikhail Bulgakov, exploring the interplay between instinct and reason. The conflict between one’s “animal” and social selves. The theme that appears particularly urgent in the Western Cartesianism-dominated part of the world.

The work premiered in its developing stage at Club Silly’s decennial show in Brixton, London, in April 2022, receiving a warm reception, and has not been recorded.
