O predstavi
Kot ena najbolj arhaičnih mitoloških figur in simbolov ženskosti Meduza predstavlja binarnost per se – v grški mitologiji je tako popolna lepotica kot popolna pošast, simbolizira lepoto na eni in grozo na drugi strani. V najinem delu iščeva in vzpostavljava neko novo estetiko dekonstruiranega in ponovno sestavljenega izmuzljivega (ženskega) bitja.
About the performance
As one of the most archaic mythological figures and symbols of femininity, Medusa presents binarity per se - in Greek mythology she is a complete beauty and a complete monster, symbolizing beauty on one hand and horror on the other. In our work, we seek and establish a kind of new aesthetic of the deconstructed and reassembled evasive (feminine) being.
