It focuses on that strange power that flows in the body of nearly every living being, following rules of its own, escaping words but manifesting in different forms and patterns of behaviour, on that power that brings both deadly shame and unending satisfaction. It explores strange emotions, strange people and strange sexual preferences; fetishes, manifestations of sexuality.
Ars Erotica asks how to perform sexuality. What is it? What does it look like? Could a performance be a way of thinking about things for which there are no words?
Ars Erotica premiered in Zodiak Center for New Dance.
In addition to the director, the workgroup consists of visual designer Minttu Vesala, performers Janne Marja-Aho and Kid Kokko, sound designer DJ Kridlokk and dramaturg Aune Kallinen.
