SOFT BODIES

Sensuous soft bellied delusion. The romance of illusion. A temple of our own. The home. Subject to the state, external forces manifest themselves around a tense dinner table. In a perpetual cycle of use, the individual finds a vice to abuse. An escape. Middle class petrification, and mass pacification. Two faces meet, two parallel mirrors, two adverse reactions: “Present” and “Absent”, our characters in this play. These mirrors bounce images of reflection and projection onto one another. Seeking a witness under the guise of “love.” The omnipresence of absence itself, a looming god and toy for yearning satisfaction. There is no action in this piece, simply a battle of reactions. The set is the gallery itself, with visual and performing artists feeding themselves and each other through atmosphere, compliance, and disruption.
