This relationship between deeper essence and outward appearance was at one time considered unproblematic.

This studio show embraces baroque aesthetics and certain practices of the closet; it considers how exuberance and expressiveness can be seen as sensory excess that mimics and protects against a hostile environment, like the imitation of eyes or euphemistically overwhelming predators.by and with juan felipe amaya gonzalezperformance: Camilla Strandhagen, Ainhoa music: carlos andr\u00e9s ricospace and costume design: luisa rodr\u00edguez jim\u00e9nez (aka mujer cobra)mentorship: Catalina Insignares, Pau Masalodramaturgical advice: Joshua Wickelights: eli\u0161ka koci\u00e1nov\u00e1\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n"},{"title":"GODMILK","link":"https:\/\/mujercobra.com\/GODMILK","pubDate":"Fri, 01 Nov 2024 11:20:38 +0000","guid":"https:\/\/mujercobra.com\/GODMILK","description":"GOLD MILK 1  . SITE B\n\n\tGodmilk is a provocative performance and audio-visual art installation that explores the intersections of the care economy, capitalist extractivism, and the gamification of female bodies. Set in a milk factory designed as an immersive environment, the project reflects the commodification of female bodies and motherhood, creating a visceral connection between the audience and the realities faced by women in society.The core premise of Godmilk revolves around three postpartum mothers who pump breast milk live on stage. This act serves as both a literal and metaphorical representation of the systemic life force that breast milk embodies, while also critiquing the exploitation of women\u2019s bodies in the capitalist economy. The installation utilizes breast milk as a powerful symbol, drawing parallels between the commodification of female bodies and the treatment of dairy cows in milk production. Godmilk investigates the care economy by examining the historical roles women have been assigned in caretaking and the societal expectations that accompany these roles. It critiques capitalist extractivism by highlighting how women\u2019s bodies are commodified for profit, as well as the gamification of their lives through societal scoring systems. The project delves into how women are evaluated based on their productivity and recovery, drawing parallels with video game mechanics that rewar performance.\n\n\n\t\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe visual installation mimics a milk factory, incorporating elements that evoke both nourishment and exploitation. Through a blend of live composition, digital art, and performance, Godmilk aims to create a multi-sensory experience that immerses the audience in its themes. Movement plays a crucial role in expressing the emotional and psychological weight of motherhood and societal expectations, enhancing the narrative and thematic depth of the installation. By featuring postpartum mothers, Godmilk addresses societal taboos surrounding motherhood and the recovery process. It also explores the dark web market for breast milk, highlighting the exploitation of women\u2019s bodies and the desperation of those seeking nourishment. The installation functions as a metaphorical video game in which FLINTA (Female, Lesbian, Intersex, Non-Binary, Transgender, Agender) bodies navigate scoring and competition, further illustrating the pressures placed on women in contemporary culture.\nGodmilk serves as a cultural critique that challenges audiences to confront uncomfortable truths about society's perceptions and treatments of female bodies. It emphasizes intersectionality by acknowledging the diverse experiences of women across the diaspora, inviting dialogue about the need for societal change. The project ultimately seeks to raise critical questions about how far society must go to support women and whether exploitation will continue to persist.\n\nThe installation invites the audience to engage with the performance, fostering a deeper understanding of the themes presented. By posing provocative questions, Godmilk encourages reflection on the care economy and the exploitation of female bodies. Additionally, it emphasizes community involvement by engaging local postpartum women, providing a platform for their voices and experiences.\n"},{"title":"BRAVURA","link":"https:\/\/mujercobra.com\/BRAVURA","pubDate":"Mon, 22 Jan 2024 11:36:25 +0000","guid":"https:\/\/mujercobra.com\/BRAVURA","description":"\n\n\tBRAVURABY JUAN FELIPE AMAYA GONZALEZ\nProduction designer \/ Costume designer\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBRAVURA refers to bravery, rage, a form of masculinity, as well as a virtuosic solo moment in music. In a fictional club setting, the performance installation juxtaposes early salsa mythology with the contemporary migration experience. It delves into the cultural depths of salsa as a representation of Latin American immigrant identity, tracing its radical roots to the marginalised Latinx communities in 1970s New York. Salsa offers a rich tapestry of narratives from the diaspora, intertwining stories of resistance, identity, and memory. It\u2019s a \ntestament to the empowering power of dance, where every movement has its history and every step is a testament to a collective journey.

The naked bodies of 120 people flick, vibrate and slap against each other to electronic sounds and abstract techno tracks. The performers celebrate their unity in diversity. As individuals and as a crowd at the same time they conquer the space in a choreography that is captivating, highly energetic and, at times, collectively reposing. Hall E is transformed into a habitat full of unexpected life forms \u2013 the audience moves about freely in the available space. The project transcends conventional ideas of the body, of dance and of nakedness in a subversive manner.\n\nHabitat is a utopia. A shameless but also a free-of-shame hymn to a naked body beyond cultural inscriptions and conventional ideals of beauty. The body is not devalued to the level of a fetish, an object; and carnality is neither metaphorically nor poetically ideologised but understood in a material sense and is therefore presented in all its mass and weight yet also in its fragility.\n\n\nHabitat can be developed in different places with local people. Doris Uhlich is interested in working with large ensembles, which are developed temporarily at specific places in order to transform dance into a collective ritual."},{"title":"IF I DON'T DANCE IT, IT WILL HURT","link":"https:\/\/mujercobra.com\/IF-I-DON-T-DANCE-IT-IT-WILL-HURT","pubDate":"Wed, 30 Oct 2024 17:34:35 +0000","guid":"https:\/\/mujercobra.com\/IF-I-DON-T-DANCE-IT-IT-WILL-HURT","description":"IF I DON\u2019T DANCE IT, IT WILL HURTMIME Centrum \/ Bethanien, Berlin 2018\nWe want to explore different ways of being together and perform the collectively land in our skins. We go through some questions, scores, states and images to trigger the power and singularity of each body.  The journey from the singular to the communal opens the boundaries of what we understand as a body. How does the experience of affection and contagion between bodies dancing build up the possibility of an eventual community? How the party is an event to frame these displacements?\n\n       \n\n\n\u201cBut perhaps, the party after the sexual-political liberations and imaginations and the social revolutions of the 20th century is about something else. Of a factory of collective sensations. Of traffic of sweating, of possibilities of extending parts of the body in other fragments of bodies; of opening, displacing and unrolling and scheming a use of space together; of experiencing the flesh, the tissues, the skin, without repressive familiar signifier; of discovering and trying a way to move something you did not imagine; of shouting, of singing, of chanting a protest song while a reggaet\u00f3n plays.... to become physical mass and rhythm; (...)
