All The Rivers Show: Chaos - in this order

Coco, Naia and Samantha three queer, late-identified autistic artists. Their life post-identification is a perpetual re-definition of their identities and the space they take in society. Their lived experiences, minds and bodies are the roots of their experimentations and creations.
"To have better chances in society as autistics, we are compelled to mask. Our masks have different manifestations, scopes and consequences which we will explore through structures of glass that can protect, conceal, mirror or reveal. These structures exist in a dialogue between movement and stillness, sound and silence. When should we conform to feel safe? Or take the risk to truly belong? On stage, we decide to take the risk. What does the public see? Is it a mask or who we really are? Is it the sum of all the projections of our society?"
The performance reflects the experience of the autistic masking in a neurotypical world. It´s important for the artists to address the risks that they have to take in order to be themselves in this society, to question what it means and if it´s really possible to feel safe in it.
