“The elephant in the room” suggests that in the presence of something evident it can be ignored. Elephants I carry, elephants brought with the audience and those emerging from this relationship between observer and observed. Now, with so many of us in a room, how many possibilities for a plural and fragmented elephant can be experienced?
In O Elefante no Meio da Sala elephants inhabit the room and dialogue.
