Écorché

Naida Zukic

LEIMAY PRESENTING SERIES 2011: FERMENT

Écorché is a performance that foregrounds surrealist aesthetic of repulsion and abjection as a way of eliciting an ethic of responsibility. The performance combines video imagery with live movement to highlight visual juxtapositions (i.e., symbolic/convulsive/body/ politics) and political ambiguities (i.e., dream aesthetic/ilinx/memory/evacuation) that mediate, negotiate, and intervene in ‘ethico-aesthetic re/articulation of subjectivity’.
