FAN-MANIA was a cycle of works focusing on pop culture and mass hysteria initiated by choreographers and artists Clélia Colonna (FR/AT) and Charlotta Ruth (SE/AT) running for five years between 2009 and 2014. The work was dealing with social media, re-enactments and contexts where social codes are twisted and was developed inside videos, installations, workshops and stage contexts. 

Fan-mania further functioned as a rhizomatic playground providing space for other individual works to emerge and develop in other contexts.
