Performance on cannibalism - 2015/2016
What is Beauty and Ugliness? While asking that, the answer came out when researching Cannibalism. With it’s many aspects Cannibalism is Beauty and Ugliness; the taboo, rage, acceptance, ritual and instinct. The question why Cannibalism wasn’t possible in a controlled manner stuck in my mind. This resulted in creating a performance that reflected a ceremony, in which RCC (Ritual Cannibal Club) was an almost religious club. This fictional club would eat attractive people in honour. To them it is a sort of appreciation, a desire and intimacy towards the deceased. To avoid confrontation with groups against the ritual, the club was kept secret and invitations were only giving to people suitable, yet with seducing imagery to create curiosity and lust.
