GENDERJOY

A kind of shape-sorting game where the blocks are constantly up for negotiation. Long, trailing arms become a dynamic seduction, large and bulging muscles become depressingly burdensome and snazzy, flared trousers turn the world on its head.

Body Joy is a continuation of the experiment we embarked upon back in 2022 with Gender Joy – and once again, this will be a physical and musical collage that plays with gender roles and norms that we – perhaps unwittingly – play a part in creating and upholding.
