VOYAGE AROUND MY ROOM

JURAJ MITRO AND COLL.
The author of this performance, Juraj Mitro, was inspired by the eponymous novel Le Voyage autour de ma chambre, written in 1794 by French soldier and aristocrat Xavier de Maistre, who was inspired by the novel Sentimental Journey around France and Italy by Laurence Stern, who was inspired by the Don Quijote de la Mancha of Miguel de Cervantes y Saavedra, who was inspired by the Divine Comedy of Dante Alighieri, who was inspired by Summa Theologica of Thomas Aquinas, who was inspired by the Holy Scripture, inspired by Jewish history, mythology and the life of Jesus of Nazareth. Thus, this performance is demonstrably drawn from the roots of human creativity itself.
