LICK MY CRYSTAL TEARS
2022 | HGK FHNW | ACT 20th
This performance focuses on questions of womanhood within night culture, the rituals and societal codes, connecting to self-desire and lost hopes of love. Moving with a muffled techno sound, the performer finds a good spot and gets into a pee squat, undressing multiple layers of underwear, while a mild-high-pitch voice tells the thoughts of a person who seems to be looking for the reason why they are part of this scene, in a kitch and sad tone. The different qualities of the movement shown in its repetition, slowmotion or in a still pose brings attention to the (self-)consciousness that one can experience while mechanically doing common rituals in a specific social context.
