Performance // Documentary Theater
The documentary performance is dedicated to the meaning of the body - of flesh - in today's society. Three performers navigate through live music, live video and Europe-wide interviews with protagonists from the porn industry, church, food industry and much more. Fascination meets revulsion, theory meets practice, body meets consciousness: Individuals on data carriers, concepts of the unthinkable, perception as the basis of the mind, the vulnerability of the human body, the non-locatability of human thought in a binary logic, the question of the possibility of disembodied existence, the mind's will and the flesh's desire.
With the co-presence of the materials, the live performance and the audience, a space is created that enables the simultaneity of the seemingly incompatible, allows perspectives to collide and searches for fractures and interfaces between the concepts.
