Curated by Danilo Andrés
Following sensual-sensitive explorations and principles as an unspecific beat, the project aims to collect new fantasies and technologies to imagine a ""gender"" of the future. ""Gender"" as a dark piece of fiction and dramaturgy in action and evolution, under the common score of performers using and setting different sonorous dispositives (a-capella voice, soundlandscape installation, loop machine).
Mad Kate is a sound artist, writer and sex worker, exploring borders between and within bodies, our sense of the aliveness of others in the virtual/digital age and how this manifests in restorative action.
Cherut Shlilit presented by Berlin based multidisciplinary artist Shany Birenboim in collaboration with artist Innes Forbes and D.R.Y is a nightly vision of a Llith, raising from the infinity of the Kabbalistic universe, reviving ancient texts by singing and dancing them, altering their meanings in a haunting, playful game of sounds and acts.
Danilo Andrés is a professional dancer, visual artist and choreographer, based in Berlin. He studied dance at the University Academia de Cristiano Humanism in Santiago de Chile (2007-2011). Further studies: Fine Art and Drawing, Art Philosophy and Art History at the Escuela de Arte at the University of Concepción, Chile. Since 2014 he has combined his work for Artistic institutions in Berlin like Akademie der Künste and Neuköllner Oper and his work as Performer in his own Solo-Authorship and as dancer in cooperation with other Choreographers like Minako Seki, Chaim Gebber and Felix Ruckert (Schwelle7). He is currently working as a visual artist, performer and choreographer on his own pieces and in cooperation with other choreographers from Chile and different nations.
Trauko is an ancient magic creature, a rapist and shapeless little man from the south woods in Chile and also the symbolic Alter ego to express an unspecific and amorphous territory of the gender, an utopic space for a thriller-Sci-fiction character, like the incomplete sketch of a new mythological animal. Trauko is this ambivalent space, this Lovecraftian monstruosity-ominosity, territory of the magic, dreams and subconsciousness, and source of new alquemical visions about ourselves, about gender and individual. The ominous contamination of this non-functional gender beast will be spread throughout into the environment with body-movement and Loop machine dispositive (Soundlandscape).
