Kissing Borders / 2015
Live Performance
A red lipstick, a black marker with permanent ink, a full-length mirror, a wall with a passage, a metall gate closing the passage, an audience.
4 to 5 hours
„WATCHING THE SELF IN THE MIRROR
PUTTING SOME RED LIPSTICK ON
CLOSING GENTLY A GATE TO THE OTHER SIDE OF A WALL
KISSING THE WALL WITH RED LIPS
OPENING GENTLY THE GATE TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WALL
LOCKING THE OTHERS UP
LOCKING THE OTHERS OUT
KEEPING THE OTHERS WAITING
RUSHING THE OTHERS
KISSING THE OTHERS WHO ARE STANDING IN THE PASSAGE
WATCHING THE SELF IN THE MIRROR
PUTTING SOME RED LIPSTICK ON
KISSING THE WALL
5 TIMES
10 TIMES
100 TIMES
1.000 TIMES
CLOSING THE GATE
5 TIMES
10 TIMES
100 TIMES
1.000 TIMES
UNTIL THE GATE IS BROKEN
UNTIL THE BORDER IS OPEN
UNTIL THE BORDER IS SILENT
UNTIL THE BORDER DISSOLVES INTO THE BODY
STANDING IN THE BORDERLANDS WITH A BLACK LINE ON THE FACE
STARTING TO CRY
CRYING ABOUT THEM CELEBRATING UNITY
CRYING ABOUT THEM NOT FEELING THE DIVISION
THEN, FUTURE HAPPENS AND THEY BECOME US:
WE HUG
WE KISS
WE ARE UNITED BY OUR SCARS AND BORDERS
WE ARE MANY
WE ARE ONE“
