While experiencing a growing social conflict about men and women's affirmation, dramatically leading to extremes as feminicide,

young generations seem not to stick to this outdated vision of the world

as they reject to identify themselves into binary gender cages or sexual preferences.
Going beyond homosexual versus heterosexual categories,

they just look for another human being, focusing on the encounter.

When meeting the Other they hop into a discovery journey

giving way to multiple emotional chances and leading to a wider range of visions and perceptions

along with acceptance of diversity out of predefinite standards.

Society is silently changing within such twilight zone where exploration and mediation win over the clashes of firm opposites,

thus overcoming dualistic vision of the world and lowering conflictual attitudes.

in-BE-tween is made of blurred hands reaching the Other in new directions while still trapped into frames of the past.

Time nevertheless makes its course, the present influencing both past and future

so the spectators are immersed in a beam of light dynamically interacting with the scene.

​

Coherently with the condition of being tween, definite and indefinite meet up on the grounds of possibility.
