Em “Third World – the discovered dimension”, the building's exhibition gallery Contemporary Pina transforms into the immersive universe created by the artist Gabriel Massan, with its sculptures, unevenness and textures that refer to the experience inside the screens.
“Third World – the discovered dimension”, a project developed in collaboration with the Serpentine Galleries, is an immersive exhibition conceived from a decolonial perspective, queer theories and decentralized strategies in technology. In the project, artist Gabriel Massan builds a video game set in a fantasy universe that, based on a collaborative storytelling, challenges the colonial concept of “exploitation” and invites the public to rethink their actions in the world.
At the exhibition, visitors can choose between the four gaming stations to begin their journey through the Third World game or they can remain in the space to watch the players' experience in real time, through five screens in the exhibition space – as in channels dedicated to broadcasting. live games.
THE STRUCTURE OF THE GAME
The first level of the game is Igba Tingbo, which in Yoruba language means “long term”. Characterized by the work of artist and clinical psychologist Castiel Vitorino Brasileiro, the experience at this stage focuses on how the player relates to “otherness”. Sòfo, which means “Empty” in Yoruba, is the second level where players are sent as HQ Agents.
Each level was created in collaboration with artists and thinkers, who contributed to the construction of dialogues, texts and narratives, including lending their voices to the characters. LYZZA, Castiel Vitorino Brasileiro, Novíssimo Edgar and Ventura Profana participated, the last three being included in the cultural program taking place at the museum in the 2nd half of 2024.
The world was created in collaboration with the artist and rapper Novíssimo Edgar, based on his experience in São Paulo, his hometown.
