In an empty black box, performer Jure Gostincar confronts his own body as images of it are projected directly onto his skin. The piece explores the tension between lived bodily experience and representation, where video art and choreography meet.
I QUERY takes apart shame and vulnerability and exposes the internalised expectations and cultural norms that shape how we look at the body. Biological and political discourses make the body a contested site of identity, and the piece asks whether it can ever exist free of imposed interpretations.
Jure Gostincar also has other performances of I QUERY at Dansehallerne in the days just before and after this one.
