Performance, 50'
// in French with Slovenian translation //
Through an exploration of medieval images, trivial ditties and grotesque paintings, Muyte Maker
celebrates disobedient and irrational bodies. It examines joy as a
physical and existential statement: joy as desire and creative
potential, going against the grain of morality, and as a physical
distortion or contradiction. The four women performers sing copiously,
laugh polyphonically, dance blindly, and chat cacophonously, in an
attempt to render the full complexity of their own bodies.
Followed by a Q&A with the artists.
