THE ORDER

 

Finally "Dispose" is the conclusion of the cycle, a large interactive installation that takes up an entire room, where Serasini distributes the lines and disks to make up the Big Dipper asterism (within the constellation Ursa Major).

The interaction of the installation is ensured by visitors who, walking over the stars, they will discover, through some recorded voices, 7 short stories told by Saptarishi, the seven sages that were present at time of Creation and representing each, in Indian mythology, the stars of the Big Dipper.
The stories, taken from verses in the RgVeda (hymns of knowledge) and the Satapatha Brahmana (Brahmana of one hundred parts) two of the most important texts composed in Vedic Sanskrit, narrate the birth of the universe and its order, as well as countless formulas needed to Vedic priests to perform correctly the sacrifices to the gods.
