"Entre Actos (Vissi d’Arte, Vissi d’Amore)" is a sculpture with video. The sculpture, based on a model of an opera house, contains within it two videos in slideshow format. One displays images of Maria Callas on stage performing La Traviata, Tosca, and Norma. The other video, also in slideshow format, features images of the artist impersonating Maria Callas on stage, interpreting the same characters from the previous video. The images in the videos are accompanied by an excerpt from the aria "Vissi d’Arte, Vissi d’Amore" from Giacomo Puccini's opera "Tosca," sung by Maria Callas. The music fills the space around the sculpture, enveloping the viewer in an atmosphere of intense emotion and reflection.

The work evokes a range of emotions, from melancholy to hope, inviting the viewer to reflect on universal themes of life, love, and art. "Entre Actos (Vissi d’Arte, Vissi d’Amore)" transcends the traditional boundaries of sculpture and thus attempts to reflect on alterity, the dichotomy between reality and fiction, and the complexity of the human condition, inviting us to reflect on our own experiences and emotions.
