L-INKED (solo research)
2019-2016 | performance-maker, performer, researcher, video work
Centred on questions of sexuality, love, desire & gender,
L-INKED deals with the intersections of different cultural & social understandings of the mentioned topics.
The interdisciplinary project "L-inked" is a series
of physical events with digital extension taking place in Linz and Vienna between tje years 2019 to 2016.
It unravels the sensitivity & sensibility around the topics of- sexuality & desire of love for an individual.
Through different artistic expressions like dance, music, video projection alongside with audience
participation it further explores the mythological, historical & current socio-political influences
on the concept of relationship- how we define, stereotype & practice the idea of gender & sexuality
especially between a man & a woman .
It also focuses on the arising need that objectification is not only for a woman but also for a man: the topics of the sensitivity
of the man, the emotionality of a man, the fluidity in a gender, the duality in a gender are not appreciated by the normative
side of society.
It strives to achieve a state of the society where people do not fall into body-shaming & hatred towards
one’s own self & others, especially when it is based on the choices of expressing intimacy, love & sexuality.
It re-establishes spaces- open air & indoors, where people can explore & find their freedom of body expressions
(without risking their or others health ) by diving deep into the diverse expressions of love and respectful ways
of being- & interacting- in different forms of relationships.
The idea is to invite people to take the project as a starting point for their own reflection on how
normative perspectives on love & desire have formed an individual lives , and thereby the humankind as a whole. Further
reflecting on how each of us can help to create an open and progressive environment wherein everyone can be accepted
for who they are.
