The performers were invited to become the disruptive bodies, the inhabitants of the space and the beholders of change.

The agency of these bodies becomes a strategy to disrupt normativity. In the course of the exhibition, performers deconstruct and repurpose the installations. Their bodies represent the labour and the disruptive power that each one of us holds in our hands. Here, the body becomes political, beyond gender and sexuality, using both concepts to expose diversity and demystify normative roles. Their movements could be considered the longing for - or the possibility of - a queer utopia.
By accepting chance, destruction and chaos I gave away my control. Loss of control is therefore a fundamental characteristic of the process that led to this performance. I understand loss of control as a tool to question grids, structures and dogmas, both in daily life and artistic practices.
Giving control and power to the other, allowing fluidity and liquidity, is a strategy to break conventions and the capitalistic tempo imposed upon us.
