Empire is a performative installation inspired by the image of the moving forest in the tragedy Macbeth and the experiences of people migrating across the Polish-Belarusian border and helping them. Shakespeare's text and the images of the humanitarian crisis at the border inspired the creative team to reflect on survival strategies for fleeing, on how supportive nature can be for people in crisis, on how to help those fleeing, and on how the government criminalises gestures of solidarity.
