    11 June, 2011: Persona is a new installation by Socìetas Raffaello Sanzio, created by Romeo Castellucci with sound by Scott Gibbons. It will be in the Piazetta of the National Theatre (Ostrovni 1) in Prague [CZ] as part of the Prague Quadrennial of Performance Design and Space. "I thought about installing a mask from Ancient Greek comedy for the Prague Quadrennial. It would be a faithful copy in bronze of a Silenus of the Hellenistic period (mid-first century BC). According to mythology, this character is the 'old' satyr who detested civilized society. Silenus was one of the fundamental characters in Ancient Greek comedy, represented by a bald mask with a Satanic expression and a mocking, sneering grin."

    "To be brutally frank, the aim of this installation is to induce fear, not of the mask itself, but of the object it is contemplating: we, the audience, the catalogue of the species, both audience and show. The mask is all-seeing. The mask speaks of everything in a summation of all human languages. The human comedy is related with a comic tongue and the human being is looked upon with an inhuman gaze."
