Feeling That Fantasy as If It Was the Fucking Reality

A performative conference that inhabits the collapse between the digital and the physical. From the minimal gesture to total exposure, the piece interrogates the reality we construct in times of endless scroll.

Halfway between manifesto and delirium, the piece is activated like a live TikTok, a ritual of media exposure that plays with irony, vulnerability and ennui. On stage, a single performer shares a hybrid space where body, voice and avatar merge.

The research was born as an exercise in translation between languages: the body, the text, the screen and social media. Inspired by methodologies of appropriation and repetition, the performance explores digital transformism as an artistic and political practice:

                    how the virtual produces bodily fictions,

                                        how the fictitious emanates from everyday life,

                                                            how to imagine a body online that remains sensitive, critical and poetic.

Activity curated by Festival Sâlmon
