Theatre of Sisyphus is an installation and photographic series that explores the theme of "Absurdism", a philosophical school of thought. This series was created in response to Albert Camus's essay "The Myth of Sisyphus", which presents to us the philosophy of Absurdism. I was inspired by his ideas on how to approach life according to the 'absurd' philosophy.
Camus argues that life is essentially meaningless, although humans continually try to impose order on existence and to look for answers to the unanswerable questions. Camus talks about various different ways to deal with life and ultimately rejects them, which I employed in my photographic series. His suggested ways are distraction, denial, pretension, to be an artist or to get political or just to accept life every day as it comes without being on the quest to find its inherent value.
I have placed two characters in my story who find another "object" which is metaphorical to 'ife' itself and the two main characters follow Camus's ideas of dealing with it.
All artworks are inspired by the storytelling technique of the "theatre of absurd".
