This performance deals with current social tensions in Berlin and abstracts themes such as authority, media influence and social unrest. The artist embodies a police officer, oscillating between threatening and darkly humorous states and examining the physicality of power and the aesthetics of control.

Based on many years of research into antagonistic archetypes, the piece deconstructs common notions of evil and fascist fetish. Between theatrical spectacle and contemplative discourse, the audience is invited to imagine alternative realities.

By juxtaposing provocative embodiment with moments of reflection, Wakey Wakey Sleeping Beauty challenges the audience to critically question the intersections of art, entertainment and social criticism in certain contexts of contemporary art production.
