All Is Good in Heaven

What happens when a gallery doesn’t shut down after closing time but instead starts to fill up with stories of surreal characters who have a life of their own? Farm in the Cave, the in-house ensemble of the DOX Centre, has created a unique evening performance that takes place in the middle of the exhibition David Lynch: Up in Flames.

Playfulness. Nostalgia. Madness. Mystery. Desire. Absurdity. Inspired by David Lynch and his courage to follow his imagination, director Viliam Dočolomanský and members of the ensemble have created a performance directly for the exhibition space. They speak through movement and music.

Emerging in the panopticon of the galleries is a world of strange characters who may seem somehow familiar to us. Visitors will experience the performance “in the flesh”, taking place around them in close proximity. They can peer into individual rooms and meet mysterious, sometimes absurd beings on their journey through the universe.

The production features original music by composer Marcel Bárta which loosely intertwines original compositions and quotations from Lynch’s work. The cast consists of Hana Varadzinová, Eliška Vavříková, Gioele Coccia, Barbora Ješutová, David Králík, and Monika Částková.

All Is Good in Heaven is about the courage to give free rein to your imagination.

The project is co-produced by the DOX Centre for Contemporary Art and the festival Music Is.
