The performance, set to music by Darío Acuña and inspired by A Season in Hell, a work by French poet Arthur Rimbaud, featured six dancers who, interacting with the spectators around the altar, placed them in a state of full participation and emotional stimulation. The entire scene evoked a ritualistic and macabre aesthetic, used, however, to critique heteronormative society. Love and hate, fetishism and obsession, separation and unity… The artist’s dystopian and metamorphic sculptures were used as props for the ritualistic choreography and as tools necessary for shaping hybrid bodies.
The group’s aim is to express an open and experimental language through performances, videos, and installations. At the core of their artistry lies free expression, embodied by key elements such as nudity, sexualisation, and transformation.
This concept is evident in every detail of the performance, not only in the movements but also in the stylistic choices. Leather and hide, used extensively in costumes and sculpture, refer to themes of bondage and provocation, but also of restriction and rebellion, while raw, worn materials taken from the streets find new life and meaning in this context. What society discards or ignores is here collected and recontextualised to create a new form of expression.
In this instance, fashion is not merely aesthetic but serves as an expressive tool and a component of the performance itself. The disturbing and provocative dimension of the representation provokes strong reactions, highlighting the weight of a social reality in which gender disparities and resistance to issues such as nudity, sexuality, and identity still exist.
