Present both in the audience and on stage throughout the opera, the artist was deeply affected by the outrageous audacity of this version and by the baritone's striking interpretation of an amoral and bestial Don Giovanni .

His works take as their support the kraft paper bag, a metaphor for the consumption of the tragic seducer. The Monstera leaves, a haunting motif, evoke the jungle and the bestiality of the predator, echoing the striking sequence from the film The Square , reinterpreted on stage, where Don Giovanni emerges in the guise of a furious gorilla. The golf clubs, here transposed into plant forms, recall the one brandished by Donna Elvira to wreck her vehicle – a nod to Bertrand Lavier's Giulietta preserved at the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Strasbourg.
