Performance
___________________________________________
“LAURA _ AkiÓ-> Trucke->”, is a series of performances that borns as a means of questioning the existing social structures, been the current world political and economic crisis the main point.
Inspired by the books of The Invisible Committee and the practices of UPAC – DyoNises theater, LAURA _ AkiÓ-> assumes her own trans(IN)disciplinary pedagogy going beyond the mood, the playful, the non-sense, to show our catatonic life state, which according to the poet and playwright Antonin Artaud, are causes of a social disease spread by a rational logic that does not accept different ways of existence.
Seeking to give birth to a new (no)SENSE of life, where materials, concepts, methodologies, resources, techniques and terms merge, LAURA _ AkiÓ->, in her performance points to the dismemberment of the culture, and consequently of the human being that we experience nowadays.
Thanks to her trolley, her “Trucke”, built from sewing and gluing of discarded materials found by the artist in the streets of the cities she passes by, LAURA _ AkiÓ-> is able to express her political, existential and social questionings by a text performance, which not only relates, but also leads to food production. Just like the materials that composes her “Trucke” cultural elements and social problems regarding the places she is performing are as well incorporated.
