Portable Installation and Performance - Monopol, Birgit & Bier, Kiez Burn, Mahalla, Berlin - 22->Current
The Goblet of Prometheus is an interactive fire installation, deigned so that participants may quite literally put fire into their hands. Eons ago, Prometheus decended from Mt. Olympus with the god's fier, and gifted it to the humans. Since then humans have ascended from the animal kingdom into it's civilized society, for better or for worse. Through interacting directly with fire, without gloves or other protective equipment, participants are invited to reflect upon that which ignites them. In bringing attention to the eternal flame that smolders in each and every one of us, we can release our fear in a single moment, and embrace our full titantic power.
